Bukayo Saka Leaves England Camp Due to Injury
Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka has departed the England national team’s camp to undergo further assessment and treatment for an injury sustained during Thursday’s UEFA Nations League match against Greece.
The 23-year-old winger limped off in the second half and was replaced by Noni Madueke. England lost the match 2-1.
Saka’s injury will keep him out of England’s upcoming clash against Finland in Helsinki on Sunday. This development is a concern for Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta, who recently lost captain Martin Ødegaard to injury.
Saka has been instrumental for Arsenal, contributing 10 goals across all competitions this season and wearing the captain’s armband in Ødegaard’s absence.
England coach Lee Carsley expressed disappointment over the loss to Greece, citing Saka’s early exit as a significant factor. Greece’s coach attributed their victory to strategic teamwork.
Saka’s injury status will likely impact Arsenal’s upcoming matches. Fans will eagerly await updates on his recovery timeline.
