Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka injury does not look good
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta stated that Bukayo Saka's quadriceps injury sustained during the Champions League match against Bayern Munich on Wednesday does not look good.
Player substituted early in match
The 25-year-old winger went down in the 10th minute while attempting a pass at the Allianz Arena. He had to be replaced by Eberechi Eze after clutching his left thigh with sharp pain.
Manager expresses concern for player
Arteta told TNT Sports that a player coming off with such pain is never good news. The manager added that the club must wait to see how the situation develops before making further decisions.
Recent fitness history noted
Saka has faced fitness issues recently, including an Achilles injury in March and hamstring surgery in December 2024. He missed seven games last season due to the Achilles problem but returned to help win the Premier League title.
