Arsenal Injury News And Expected Return Dates: Updates On Ethan Nwaneri, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli And 3 Others

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed that Ethan Nwaneri did not suffer a major injury during the defeat to West Ham at the weekend.

Bukayo Saka is still “far” away from making his comeback, according to Arteta. The winger has been out since December with a hamstring injury but Arteta did emphasise that Saka is “progressing well” in his recovery.

Some reports suggested that Saka could return for the game against Manchester United on 9th Match but that appears to be overly optimistic
