Bukayo Saka (Arsenal)
September 2025
Bukayo Saka returned to first-team training after a hamstring injury, raising hopes he can feature in Arsenal’s critical Premier League showdown with Manchester City at the Emirates this weekend. Captain Martin Ødegaard’s recovery, however, remains in doubt. Saka had missed three matches but impressed in early-season form before his injury. His comeback provides a timely boost as Arsenal seek momentum, while Ødegaard’s shoulder issue may leave Arteta without his playmaker. Both players’ fitness will heavily shape Arsenal’s performance.
