Bukayo Saka has no luck this season. The English footballer injured his hamstring against Crystal Palace on Saturday. Although the London team won 5:1, much more was expected from them. Saka left the stadium on crutches, and Arteta revealed now that it was a serious injury. The young footballer is one of Arsenal's strongest weapons, but the injuries that have been causing him problems for some time are a huge obstacle for him.
At the press conference, Mikel Arteta now said that the injury is of a serious nature and that Saka will not be in the team for some time. It's a big shock for Arsenal fans.
"It doesn't look good. He is waiting for a long break; he will be absent for many weeks. This is a big blow for us. This will be a difficult task to overcome another obstacle. We also lost Rahim Sterling due to injury, I don't know for how long. To remain without two players in 24 hours is not good at all. Unfortunately, with the large number of games we play and with this schedule, Sterling will probably be out for a few weeks," said Arteta.
Bukayo Saka stats
Saka played 24 games in all competitions this season, a total of 1,828 minutes. He recorded nine goals and 13 assists. He will be missed by Arsenal, who are trying to get back into the title race, have the semi-finals of the League Cup, the FA Cup, and participation in the Champions League.
The London team is still in the title race this season, although the advantage that Liverpool has is serious. However, in English football it is known that no advantage is a guarantee of success. Mikel Arteta is an optimist hoping that his team can catch up with Liverpool.
For such a thing, a winger will be crucial for his team, and we have no doubt that Arsenal will be active during the winter. There are several options on the market.
