Bukayo Saka Returns From Injury

Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has confirmed that Bukayo Saka is back to full fitness after being out for three months due to a hamstring injury.

The 23-year-old winger underwent surgery in December to correct the injury sustained during December’s English Premier League (EPL) victory over Crystal Palace.

His return is likely to be a huge boost for the Gunners. Despite his absence, Saka remains the team’s top contributor in goals and assists this season.

Arsenal’s attacking dynamics, particularly benefiting captain Martin Odegaard, whose creative play complements Saka’s style. This synergy could revitalise the team’s offensive strategies as they aim to close the gap in the EPL title race.

However, Saka’s return may impact the playing time of emerging talents like Ethan Nwaneri. The 17-year-old midfielder has seized opportunities during Saka’s absence, showcasing his potential and earning valuable first-team experience.

Saka is set to appear against Fulham this evening, Tuesday 1 April, at Emirates Stadium in London, England.
