Arsenal fans received a boost of optimism as key players Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber were spotted with the squad ahead of Sunday’s highly anticipated Premier League clash against Liverpool.
Saka, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since England’s Nations League match against Greece, was seen participating in light training sessions. Although his full fitness remains uncertain, his presence with the team is a positive sign for the Gunners.
Timber, who has been recovering from a muscle injury, also joined the squad. The Dutch defender’s return would be crucial for Arsenal, especially with William Saliba suspended after his red card in the recent match against Bournemouth
Manager Mikel Arteta expressed cautious optimism about the duo’s chances of playing. “Bukayo has done some training on the grass, and Jurrien has had his first session back. We’ll see how they progress over the next couple of days,” Arteta said during a press conference.
The potential return of Saka and Timber would provide a significant boost to Arsenal’s lineup as they prepare to face Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium. Fans are hopeful that the duo’s involvement will enhance the team’s chances of securing a vital victory in the title race.
