England manager Lee Carsley has provided a key update on Bukayo Saka’s injury, with Arsenal fans anxiously awaiting further news.
The 22-year-old has been a vital player for the Three Lions, securing his place in the right wing despite strong competition.
Bukayo started in the defeat against Greece, but after a challenging first half – where he recieved a yellow card and struggled to influence the game – he was substituted early in the second half, not due to tactics but because of an injury concern.
Shortly after Greece took the lead through Vangelis Pavlidis, Saka appearedto pull a muscle and was replaced by Chelsea’s Noni Madueke.
England fought hard for an equalizer, which came in the 87th minute through Jude Bellingham. However, Pavlidis scored a last minute goal in stoppage time to secure a surprise victory for Greece.
In a press conference, Carsley was asked about Saka’s condition and confirmed that the Arsenal star is still being evaluated. “He’s being assessed,” Carsley said. “Obviously, in the build-up to the first goal, you could see he felt something in his leg.”
Saka’s fitness remains uncertain, and fans are eager for more updates.
