Arsenal have learned when Bukayo Saka could potentially return from injury after the winger had to leave the pitch against Crystal Palace. He was forced off limping in the 24th minute of the game after falling down to the turf and requiring some treatment. Leandro Trossard came on to replace the winger as a substitute, with Saka going to the dressing room.
He was seen leaving Selhurst Park on crutches, which raised questions about how long he would be out for. After the game, which the Gunners won 5-1 on December 21, Mikel Arteta addressed the injured winger in his press conference, telling the reporters (via Standard):
“He felt something in his hamstring. He couldn’t continue. He will have to be assessed. Pretty worried about that one.”
