Bukayo Saka suffered a right hamstring injury in December that required surgery and caused a three-and-a-half-month absence. He has now picked up a left hamstring problem after the win against Leeds and will be sidelined for a couple of weeks. Surgery is not required for the new injury, which is less severe than the previous one. The recurrence is a significant concern for a sprinter who relies on bursts and changes of pace to be most threatening. Kai Havertz will undergo knee surgery but is not expected to be out for a significant period. Arsenal are also missing Martin Ødegaard, Christian Nørgaard, Ben White and Gabriel Jesus ahead of the trip to Liverpool.
He felt something, so he will be out for a couple of weeks.
But it is obviously a concern, a big one, especially when we talk about a sprinter and a player that gets into that zone very often in a football match, who needs that burst, that change of rhythm of pace to be as threatening as possible.
The doctors advised and he was very convinced at the end that it was the quickest and the best way to resolve that issue.
