Bukayo Saka has reportedly recovered from his injury and will play against Nottingham Forest, according to Mikel Arteta.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided a positive update on Bukayo Saka’s recovery, hinting that the star winger is likely to feature in the upcoming match against Nottingham Forest this Saturday.
Saka, who sustained a hamstring injury during Arsenal’s 1-1 draw with Chelsea, was forced to withdraw from the England squad for the Nations League fixtures. Despite initial concerns about his fitness, Arteta’s recent comments suggest that Saka has made significant progress in his recovery.
Arteta stated, “It’s great to see Bukayo back in training and looking sharp. We’ll monitor him closely, but I’m optimistic he’ll be ready for Saturday.” The manager’s confidence in Saka’s recovery is a welcome boost for Arsenal fans, who have been eagerly awaiting his return to the starting lineup.
The Gunners are aiming to secure their first win in four Premier League matches and will be relying on Saka’s creativity and goal threat to help them achieve this goal.
