Bukayo Saka’s status for the Manchester City game confirmed

This weekend, Arsenal is set for a crucial match against Manchester City, and it has been confirmed that a key player will miss the game.

Details: Arsenal’s head coach, Mikel Arteta, announced that winger Bukayo Saka will not participate against City, and Mikel Merino is also out.

Quote: “Bukayo will not play, that is certain, and Mikel will not play either. We will find a solution regardless of the situation. We’ve grown accustomed to this during the season. Whatever happens, we will find the right solution,” said Arteta.

Currently, Arsenal leads the table with 70 points from 32 matches, while Manchester City has 64 points from 31 games. With City having a game in hand, this match is vital for the title race.

Reminder: Arsenal recently faced Sporting in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals and advanced with a 1-0 away victory, setting a new club record.
