Saka went off injured in the 24th minute in Arsenal's 5-1 recent victory over Crystal Palace, and caused enough concern amongst the Gunners' medical personnel for them to order an immediate scan to diagnose the extent of the injury.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Key to the way Mikel Arteta's side play, Arsenal fans and staff alike will be immensely worried by a report from the Daily Mail that the injury sustained could be a total detachment from the bone. Called a hamstring avulsion, such injuries usually require surgery and can take up to six months to recover.
Saka has made 250 appearances for Arsenal in all competitions, scoring 67 times since his debut in 2018.
WHAT NEXT FOR SAKA AND ARSENAL?
Saka will be integral to any hopes Arsenal have of mounting a serious Premier League title charge, so everyone associated with the club will hope that the injury is not as serious as the reports says.
