Arsenal star Bukayo Saka could be available in the squad to face Fulham next week.
Bukayo Saka close to returning to the PL
Arsenal are confident that their star Bukayo Saka will be available from the next week. He suffered a hamstring injury in their win over Crystal Palace in December. He had to get the surgery done. Since then, he has been recovering.
His healing period has been good. He is now training with high confidence. Although, there’s no hurry to make him play as early as they can. The Gunners will be careful about making his return to football. They will take a call whether he will play in the Tuesday’s fixture.
The England international will surely be ready to face Real Madrid next month. His side will take on the European giants in the quarter-finals of the UCL in April.
As per BBC Sport, Arsenal were going to held contract negotiations with the winger. He will soon be in his final two years of his contract at the Emirates club. His current deal makes him around £10 million per season.
Saka’s return will be a huge boost for Arsenal
If the reports are true, then the English winger will be back in the squad next week. He will also be able to play his club’s crucial UCL fixtures against Real Madrid in April.
The Los Blancos will be travelling to north London for the first leg on April 8. A week later, the reverse fixture will be played at the Bernabeu in Madrid.
Bukayo was in a great form before he was sidelined. He has five goals and ten assists in only 16 Premier League games this campaign. He also had key impact in the Champions League as well. The winger scored four goals and has two assists in the UCL so far.
