Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka could be fit for Arsenal’s Champions League game against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday. The 23-year-old missed Arsenal’s 2-0n defeat to Bournemouth on Saturday with manager Mikel Arteta not wanting to take any risks with one of his key players.

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka was left out of their squad for the trip to Bournemouth on Saturday. After suffering an injury while on England duty, Saka was touch and go for the trip to the South Coast. Saka came off in the second half of England's 2-1 loss to Greece at Wembley and returned to Arsenal for treatments.

Arsenal’s captain and talisman Martin Odegaard has been another significant absentee in recent weeks. The Norwegian midfielder has been out since August 31st, following a serious ankle ligament injury sustained while on international duty. His absence has been deeply felt, with Arsenal struggling to replace his creative spark.
