Saka leaves Arsenal short
During Arsenal's last Premier League game, the triumph over Crystal Palace, the British-Nigerian had to be substituted early after he appeared to have hurt his hamstring.
After tests were conducted, Mikel Arteta confirmed the worst, stating that the winger hurt the muscle and would be out of action for several weeks. Conflicting reports have been published on his return date, with some outlets forecasting February while others expect him to return in March.
Raheem Sterling was brought in the summer to provide support in situations like this, but Arteta confirmed the former Manchester City man is injured as well.
