Arsenal may have made things even worse by pulling Bukayo Saka out of the North London game with an injury.

The England player was taken off in the 86th minute, with Mikel Arteta’s team ahead 1-0. Ethan Nwaneri, who is 17 years old, took his place.

The change didn’t look like it was planned; instead, it looked like it was made quickly because the 23-year-old had been taken down with what looked like an injury.

In the 84th minute, the 23-year-old fell to the ground and grabbed both of his legs. He shook his head quickly and then got medical help, but he stayed on the game.

But soon after, he was taken out of the game and had to limp to the bench to watch his team win against their bitter foes. 

Arsenal already doesn’t have Martin Odegaard, Mikel Merino, Riccardo Calafiori, or Oleksandr Zinchenko because they are hurt. Saka’s injury is a huge blow to them.

Arsenal fans and Mikel Arteta will now be scared of the worst as they get ready for their Champions League away game against Atalanta on Thursday.

Before they play Manchester City next week in the Premier League, they have to go to the Etihad on Sunday to play them. 

As a key member of Mikel Arteta’s title-winning team, Saka showed today why he is one of the first names on the Spanish coach’s starting eleven. He set up Gabriel’s second-half winner, which was enough for the Gunners to win all three points in a very tough match.

Arsenal’s injury problems started earlier this summer when Mikel Merino, a new player signed from Real Sociedad for £31.6 million, broke his shoulder in his first training session with the team.

After being diagnosed, the Spanish player will be out for a long time. He will not be able to play for almost two months. 

While they were away for the international break, Martin Odegaard and Riccardo Calafiori both got hurt while playing for Norway and Italy, respectively.

Odegaard will be out for at least three weeks because he hurt his ankle while playing for Norway in a game.

It was a bad sign for Arsenal fans when their leader got hurt in the second half of their team’s 2-1 Nations League win over Austria on Monday.

Odegaard looked like he was crying as he limped off the stage. Later, he was seen on crutches as he limped onto a private jet, with the problem being called a “bad ankle injury.”

As for Calafiroi, he got hurt by a strange thing while Italy beat France in a Nations League game.

The Italian defender hurt his ankle when Ousmane Dembele landed on him after he had hit the ground.

Alessandro Bastoni of Italy stole the ball from the winger but caught him on the follow-through. Dembele’s flying leg then hit Calafiori.
