Bukayo Saka

Bukayo Saka is expected to miss Arsenal’s upcoming clash against Liverpool on Sunday, as well as England’s World Cup qualifiers against Andorra and Serbia next month, due to a hamstring injury.

The 23-year-old forward limped off during Arsenal’s 5-0 victory over Leeds United on Saturday, and early assessments suggest he could be sidelined for up to four weeks.

According to BBC Sports on Monday, Arsenal captain, Martin Odegaard, is also doubtful for the match at Anfield as a result of a shoulder injury suffered in the victory against Leeds.

Odegaard was in pain as he was replaced in the first half of the 5-0 win, and the former Real Madrid attacking midfielder is understood to have left Emirates Stadium with his shoulder in a sling.

The Norway playmaker has not yet been ruled out of the game against the Premier League champions, and there is optimism at Arsenal that neither the 26-year-old nor Saka will be long-term casualties.

There is particular relief regarding Saka, who missed three months of last season with a hamstring injury.

Arsenal have a deeper pool of attacking talent this season, having signed Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke, and Eberechi Eze this summer.

Gunners manager, Mikel Arteta, also has Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard, Ethan Nwaneri, and Max Dowman to fill the gap of Saka and Odegaard.
