Arteta concerned by Saka injuries after latest hamstring blow
Sunday Tribune
|August 31, 2025
MIKEL Arteta said Bukayo Saka's recurring hamstring injuries are a big concern" after the Arsenal winger was ruled out for at least two weeks.
-
Saka was forced off in the second half of Arsenal's win against Leeds last weekend and will be sidelined for today's tripto Premier League champions Liverpool.
The 23-year-old could be in a position to return to action next month, but Gunners boss Arteta is worried about his star forward's cycle of injuries.
Saka missed three-and-a-half months of last season following surgery on his right hamstring in December.
He returned in April and played 13 times before sustaining the latest hamstring issue, this time in his left leg, in just his second appearance of this season.
"He does not need surgery. It's not as bad as the previous one. He felt something, so he will be out for a couple of weeks," Arteta told reporters on Friday.
