Bukayo Saka injury update given by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta


Chelsea FC v Arsenal FC - Premier League

Bukayo Saka missed England’s games during the international break

Mikel Arteta has hinted Bukayo Saka has recovered from injury and will feature against Nottingham Forest.

The England winger missed last week’s Nations League fixtures following the injury he picked up during Arsenal’s 1-1 draw at Chelsea prior to the international break.

Arteta’s side face highflying Forest on Saturday knowing they can ill-afford to drop any more points in the Premier League title race.

Arsenal’s season has been blighted to a spate of injuries but are delighted to welcome back captain Martin Odegaard who successfully came through his return game at Stamford Bridge before being rested by Norway.

Declan Rice, who played through the pain barrier against Chelsea, also missed the final two matches of interim Three Lions manager Lee Carsley’s brief tenure.

Leandro Trossard, meanwhile, who appeared to have suffered an injury during Belgium’s game against Israel, also looks set to recover in time.

Asked for an update at his pre-match press conference, Arteta said: ‘Trossard seems to be okay. He trained this morning.

‘Bukayo and Declan as well they had their first session, today, a partial session.’
