A significant Arsenal absence
Saka’s continued absence comes as Arsenal remain active in the Premier League and Champions League. The club’s recent European campaign included a 2-1 win away to Slavia Prague, while Arsenal also moved to the top of the Premier League after beating Liverpool at Anfield, according to recent match coverage cited in the available reports.FourFourTwo
The latest report does not provide a precise return date or indicate when Saka will resume full team training. It does, however, clarify that the forward’s recovery is expected to extend beyond the upcoming international break.
Saka’s status is separate from the latest update on Arsenal defender Ezri Konsa, who was reported to be fine after being withdrawn as a precaution during the Champions League victory in Prague.FourFourTwo
