Bukayo Saka has left the England squad and returned to Arsenal for rehabilitation due to an injury, meaning he may miss the upcoming match against Manchester City. Saka played the full 90 minutes in Arsenal’s last game before the break, but has been managing small issues throughout the season. The winger’s absence could impact Arsenal’s Premier League standing, as they are currently one point behind City in third place.

Arsenal are set to face Manchester City in a highly anticipated match at the Etihad next Sunday. With only one point separating the two teams in the Premier League standings, Saka’s potential absence adds uncertainty to Arsenal’s chances. Saka, who has started in 27 of Arsenal’s 28 league games this season, will be racing against time to recover and be fit for the crucial upcoming fixture.

The statement on England’s website confirmed Saka’s departure from the national team camp and his return to Arsenal for further rehabilitation. The England squad will continue to prepare for their friendlies against Brazil and Belgium without making any further replacements. Saka’s availability for Arsenal’s match against Manchester City remains uncertain, adding an element of suspense to an already important fixture in the Premier League season.
