Bukayo Saka Faces Extended Absence Due to Injury

Bukayo Saka, the Arsenal forward, may be out for at least six weeks due to a quadriceps injury he incurred during a Champions League match against Bayern Munich. The injury forced him to leave the pitch early in the game, which ended in a 2-2 draw.

An MRI scan is scheduled to assess the injury further, as fluid around the muscle has complicated the diagnosis. Initial evaluations suggest he could miss crucial matches for Arsenal and England's upcoming UEFA Nations League fixtures.

Saka's absence will be felt in the Premier League, particularly in the upcoming match against Everton. He has faced several fitness challenges in the past year, including Achilles and hamstring issues, raising concerns about his durability as a key player for the team.
