Arsenal fear Saka could miss up to two months after Bayern injury

Arsenal’s attacking options are set to shrink after Bukayo Saka suffered a quadriceps injury in the Champions League match against Bayern Munich. The forward was forced to leave the pitch early, and medical staff have confirmed the muscle damage.

The injury is expected to rule Saka from the squad for up to eight weeks, according to Arsenal’s medical team. A quadriceps problem of this nature typically requires a period of rest and rehabilitation before a player can return to full training.

With Saka out, Arsenal will need to rely on backup forwards and adjust their tactical approach in the run‑up to the end of the Premier League season. The club’s depth will be tested as they navigate a congested fixture list.

The timing of the injury is particularly challenging, as the team faces a series of important matches over the next month. A prolonged absence for a key player could affect Arsenal’s ability to secure a top‑four finish.

Arsenal’s coaching staff have outlined a rehabilitation plan for Saka, and the club will monitor his progress closely. The next update will come after the team’s training sessions over the coming week.
