“He was cramping a bit.” – Arsenal coach break silence and reveals the midfielder Declan Rice latest injury update after their victory over Wolves on Saturday

After Arsenal’s 2-0 win over Wolves on Saturday, boss Mikel Arteta made it clear what was going on with star midfielder Declan Rice. The England player was taken off late in the game, which raised worries about a possible injury.

Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka scored goals that gave Arsenal the win. They worked well together to get three points in their first Premier League game.

In the first half, Havertz scored with a precise header from Saka’s cross. Later, Saka doubled the lead with a powerful strike from close range after Havertz had passed the ball to him.

But Rice was taken off the game in the 85th minute and replaced by Gabriel Jesus, which made people wonder if he was still healthy. Arteta told fans after the game that Rice wasn’t hurt and was just having cramps because he didn’t get enough practice during the off-season.

Arteta said, “He was cramping a bit.” “His preseason hasn’t been the longest ever.” This morning, he really tried and put in an amazing show.

Arteta also said that even though the win was important, Arsenal still needs to do better if they want to be in the running for the Premier League title this season. “There are some things that could be better, but overall I’m very happy,” the manager said.

Arsenal wants to beat Manchester City and have come close the last two seasons. To do this, they will need key players like Rice and Saka to stay healthy and play their best all season.
