Arsenal are concerned Bukayo Saka could be sidelined for up to six weeks due to a quadriceps injury sustained during their Champions League match against Bayern Munich. The 25-year-old will undergo an MRI scan on Friday to determine the extent of the injury, which forced him to leave the field in Wednesday's 2-2 draw at the Allianz Arena.
Initial examinations suggest Saka's absence could be longer than initially estimated, potentially affecting key Arsenal games and England's upcoming UEFA Nations League matches against Croatia and Spain. Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta emphasized the need for further scans and specialist opinions before providing a definitive assessment.
Saka's absence would impact Arsenal's Premier League match against Everton on Saturday, where the team aims to narrow the three-point gap on leaders Manchester City. The young Arsenal academy product has faced fitness challenges recently, including an Achilles injury in March that kept him out of England's World Cup campaign and seven Arsenal games, as well as surgery for a hamstring injury in December 2024.
