Arsenal Forward Bukayo Saka Forced Off Early with Apparent Leg Injury Against Bayern Munich

Arsenal face a nervous wait after their winger left with a thigh injury, and Arteta said the club will assess whether he can return soon.

  • Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka sustained a suspected thigh injury during Wednesday's 2-2 Champions League draw against Bayern Munich, forced off in the 10th minute at Allianz Arena.
  • Concerningly, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta described the quadriceps injury as 'concerning,' noting that a player leaving the pitch with 'really sharp pain' is 'never good news' while awaiting scan results.
  • Eberechi Eze, who replaced the injured star, opened the scoring in the 25th minute to help secure a draw, forcing Arsenal to rely on squad depth during a pivotal stretch.
  • On Saturday, Arsenal host Everton at the Emirates Stadium before traveling to Anfield for a high-stakes clash against Liverpool in 10 days, with Saka's status under close monitoring.
  • Ahead of Sunday's showdown, Liverpool manager Andoni Iraola prepares his side to close a six-point gap on the league leaders, with Arsenal having not won at Anfield since 2012.
