Bukayo Saka Out for Weeks with Injury

Arsenal's winger Bukayo Saka is set to be sidelined for 'many weeks' due to a hamstring tear sustained during their 5-1 victory over Crystal Palace. Manager Mikel Arteta confirmed that Saka, who has been pivotal with nine goals and 12 assists this season, left the match on crutches and is struggling to cope with the emotional impact of the injury. Saka's absence poses a significant challenge for Arsenal, particularly with crucial fixtures ahead, including an FA Cup clash against Manchester United. Arteta is looking at alternative strategies to maintain team performance, mentioning that the squad has faced similar challenges earlier this season. Additionally, Raheem Sterling, who might have filled Saka's role, is also out with a knee injury. Arteta emphasized the need to adapt and find solutions in light of these setbacks.
