Bukayo Saka was substituted late in Arsenal’s Premier League match against Manchester United due to a potential injury.

The England international had a lackluster performance at Old Trafford and was substituted with the Gunners leading 1-0 with a potential injury. Saka appeared to be in agony after awkwardly colliding with the advertising hoardings during a challenge involving Sofyan Amrabat.

Saka, who had been treated on the side of the field, was substituted for Gabriel Jesus shortly thereafter. Mikel Arteta decided to remove him from the field.

Saka, who was observed in training with heavy bracing on his leg, entered the game as a minor injury doubt; nevertheless, he was selected for the starting XI. With precisely one week remaining until the season-ending match against Everton, Arteta will be hoping Saka can make his debut, as the championship will be at stake.

Arsenal has been relatively unaffected by injuries in recent weeks, but Jurrien Timber remains out of the matchday squad despite having traveled to Manchester.

Nevertheless, this could potentially alter in light of Saka’s most recent muscular concern, which will likely necessitate weekly monitoring of his fitness. Although that remains to be seen, Arteta was present following the contest to provide a positive update. “I believe he will be fine,” Arteta conceded during the press conference that followed the match.

In the meantime, title contenders Manchester City will face Tottenham before concluding their season at home against West Ham; a pair of victories would be sufficient to secure their fourth consecutive championship.
