Bukayo Saka responds to Arsenal decision as injury return date eyed | Football | Sport
Arsenal will have to return to the Premier League on Saturday, face the Nottingham forest at the Emirates stadium (kick -off of 12:30 p.m.). However, they are likely to be without a star winger Bukayo Saka, who is still recovering from an injury to the hamstrings.
The 24-year-old man suffered the injury in the 5-0 victory of Arsenal against Leeds United, which led him to miss the match against Liverpool and not being able to participate in the qualifications of the England World Cup against Andorra and Serbia. Initially, there were concerns that it could reflect his absence of four months at the latest last season, but fortunately for Arsenal, the prognosis suggests a question of weeks rather than months.
The next confrontation with Manchester City at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday September 21 (launch of 4.30 p.m.) has been suggested as a potential return date, although it will depend on its recovery progress. While Saka continues his rehabilitation, Arsenal and the player himself reminded fans his revolutionary capacities.
The Gunners announced via their social networks that Saka’s goal against Leeds was elected the goal of the club of the month for August, a strike which saw him beat the Leeds goalkeeper on the right side of the box, sending the high ball in the net.
To celebrate the announcement, Arsenal posted a replay of the objective on their Instagram channels. Saka also shared the post announcing his objective as the objective of the month, as well as replay, on his personal Instagram history.
Although he was sidelined due to an injury last season, Saka still managed to score 11 goals and provide 14 assists in 33 games all competitions. It will aim to exceed these figures this season.
If he manages to do so, this could considerably strengthen the chances of Arsenal to draw the title of Liverpool at the end of the season. Arsenal finished second behind Arne Slot last season, the third consecutive time they finished as a finalist.
