Arsenal loanee, Pablo Mari, currently with Italian side, Monza, was one of six people stabbed in a shopping centre in Milan today.
The incident which led to the 29-year-old’s stabbing occurred at around 5.30pm in Milan’s Milanofiori di Assago shopping centre.
Despite being injured in the attack, GOAL reports that Mari is awake at Niguarda hospital.
Numerous reports in Italy have claimed that the 46-year-old man who stabbed Mari and the five other people took a knife from the shelves and used it to injure those shopping around him.
“I know that Edu (Arsenal’s sporting director) is in contact with his relatives, he seems to be doing well,” manager Mikel Arteta told reporters on today.
In a statement, Arsenal wrote, “Our thoughts are with Pablo and the other victims of this dreadful incident.”
Monza CEO Adriano Galliani added, “Pablo Mari is not in danger as his injuries are not life-threatening. We hope to see him back soon.”
An eyewitness told La Repubblica: “We were at the bar and we thought it was a robbery because we saw some boys and a lady running, then we saw more and more people with upset faces and we realised that something serious had happened.”
