Arsenal injury update: Information regarding the latest news and return dates for Bukayo Saka, Riccardo Calafiori, and Martin Odegaard
Following Riccardo Calafiori’s departure from the match against Shakhtar Donetsk, Arsenal has encountered yet another significant injury concern.
The defender was substituted after it appeared that he had twisted his knee as a result of slipping on the turf. He is now considered to be a significant concern for the match against Liverpool on Sunday. The Gunners are also anticipating an anxious wait for Bukayo Saka and Jurrien Timber, while captain Martin Odegaard is still far from a return. The most recent Arsenal injury news and return dates are provided below. Bukayo Saka Saka is currently unavailable to play against Liverpool due to an evident hamstring injury that he sustained during England’s unexpected Nations League loss to Greece at Wembley. Arteta confirmed that the winger is “unlikely” to be available for the top-of-the-table clash, despite the optimism at Arsenal that the injury was minor and that he could face Bournemouth on Saturday. He missed the defeat and the narrow win over Shakhtar. “He was incapable of conducting the session in the manner that we desired.” Arteta informed Prime Video prior to the game that Saka was not feeling well, which was not a positive development. Subsequently, he stated, “I am uncertain as to whether he will be able to face Liverpool.” It is improbable, as he has not yet had the opportunity to train.
Riccardo Calafiori Riccardo Calafiori was substituted during Arsenal’s match against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday night, as the team experienced a heavy downpour. After extending awkwardly and appearing to jar his knee and potentially twist his ankle, the Italian defender was replaced with 20 minutes remaining. Calafiori attempted to continue following his treatment; however, he was shortly required to be replaced. Arteta stated to Prime Video following the contest, “Riccy, I am uncertain; he experienced an emotion.” “He was unable to continue playing, which was a bit concerning.” Potential return date: Unknown Martin Odegaard Arsenal’s influential captain has not appeared for his club since the 1-1 home draw with Brighton on August 31. He sustained substantial ankle ligament injury while on international duty with Norway last month. Odegaard announced earlier this month that he was recuperating ahead of schedule and provided a new update in his programme notes prior to Shakhtar’s visit to the Champions League on Tuesday.
“I have been dedicating a significant amount of time to my recovery over the past few weeks, and the fact that I have been unable to attend significant Champions League matches, such as this one, has only served to reinforce my resolve and motivation to return to the field as soon as possible,” Odegaard noted. “I am improving on a daily basis; however, ankle injuries include both highs and lows.” On occasion, you may experience a mild reaction, while on others, you may feel exceptionally well. However, it is generally improving, and I believe that I am now getting closer. Potential return date: Preston versus October 30 Jurrien Wood Timber, White, and Zinchenko were among a small number of players who appeared to be in contention to return to Arsenal immediately following the international break. Arteta stated prior to Bournemouth: “The three of them are quite close.” We must exert pressure today to determine who is the stronger party, particularly on our right side, as we are numerically superior. We are optimistic that we will receive some positive news today and that some of our players will return tomorrow. Nevertheless, Timber was absent for the Cherries’ defeat and the subsequent victory over Shakhtar. On Monday, Arteta stated, “It will be a close game,” prior to the Shakhtar match. It is imperative that we observe his approach to instructing the entire group. However, he is relatively near. Potential return date: October 27 against Liverpool
