Breaking injury news for Arsenal as they prepare for Man United match: Arteta problems A report about Bukayo Saka
Before Arsenal resume play, Mikel Arteta has only a few more days to hone his skills at London Colney’s training fields. As the Premier League championship battle heats up, Manchester United will host Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.
Arsenal will be looking to continue their winning streak following a 3-0 victory against Bournemouth last weekend. At Saturday’s Emirates Stadium match, the north Londoners reaffirmed their position atop the league by thrashing Andoni Iraola’s squad.
Red Devils coach Erik ten Hag will be looking for a response from his team after Monday’s crushing loss to Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park. Having said that, football.london has researched every injury report involving Arsenal.
Jurrien Timber
In the Premier League season opener against Nottingham Forest, Timber tore his anterior cruciate ligament, which sidelined him for a significant portion of the year. Now that he’s back in action, the 22-year-old defender has been a mainstay for the under-21 squad.
As part of his recovery, he assisted the young Gunners in last month’s 2-0 victory against Liverpool. Timber, who has been out for over nine months, may get to play for the first team again against United, but he probably won’t start.
Ailment: Leg.
“Yes, everybody is fit and available so now it’s the headache to make the right selection,” Arteta told reporters before the north London derby. Unless we deposit Timber there, we will never know. It’s complicated because he hasn’t played football in eight months, and there are just three games remaining.
“He’s played only 115 minutes of football with the Under-21s, it’s a question that can only be resolved by throwing him on the pitch and we will see what happens, we have to try to nail that decision when [we take it].”
Manchester United (A) – Sunday, May 12 is a possible return date.
Hi there, Saka!
Just twenty-five minutes into the Bournemouth match, Lewis Cook and Ryan Christie both slammed into Saka, sending him flying. Before being soldered on, the Gunners ace had some treatment for a terrible wound on his shin.
He sustained a cut to the leg.
What Arteta has stated: “Is it intentional or not? What about the one on Bukayo?” Judging is tough for me since I don’t know.

The matchday rosters for both Tottenham Hotspur and Bournemouth did not include Reiss Nelson Nelson. The 24-year-old winger had frequent appearances in first team training, although the specific reason for his exclusion is unclear.
Following a brief absence last season owing to a thigh problem, he has handled himself well by avoiding the treatment room this term. Nelson was a no-show for nine of Arsenal’s games during 2022–2023.
No known injuries.
“Look at the example of Reiss,” Arteta told reporters in early April. One of the finest days of his Arsenal career was the time he played a few minutes but had a tremendous influence; it was also his finest moment with the club.

Whether he came off the bench or began is a mystery to everyone. Players have had a significant effect in several instances across the world of sports. It just takes a split-second to alter a football club’s trajectory. To play football, you do not need one hundred minutes.
Arteta later this month stated: “Yes, everybody is fit and available so now it’s the headache to make the right selection.”
