Arsenal winger Saka sidelined due to hamstring injury

Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka will be sidelined for several weeks after suffering a hamstring injury during the team’s 5-1 win over Crystal Palace.

Manager Mikel Arteta says the injury is serious and Saka will need time to recover.

Arteta says while the situation is unfortunate, the team will use this time to support Saka and adjust accordingly.

Arteta adds that Saka is "gutted" by the news and acknowledged the toll of playing over 130 games in three seasons may have contributed to the injury.

Arsenal will now focus on coping without key players, including Raheem Sterling, who is also out with a knee injury.

The Gunners face Ipswich this Friday.
