Arsenal sweating on Bukayo Saka's fitness ahead of Man City clash after forward drops out of England squad for Brazil and Belgium friendlies

Arsenal have been hit with a blow after Saka dropped out of the <a href="Arsenal sweating on Bukayo Saka's fitness ahead of Man City clash after forward drops out of England squad for Brazil and Belgium friendlies" target="_blank">current England squad</a> due to injury. The forward has not been able to train since reporting for international duty due to injury and has now returned to his club side.

WHAT HAPPENED?

A statement read: "Bukayo Saka has left the England camp and returned to his club for continued rehabilitation. The Arsenal forward reported to St. George's Park with an injury and has been unable to participate in training.&nbsp; No further replacements are planned as a 25-man England squad continue their preparation for the forthcoming internationals with Brazil and Belgium."

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

Saka featured for the entire 120 minutes of Arsenal's previous game, helping them to a penalty shootout win against Porto in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie in their final game before the international period. The Gunners will be hoping the 22-year-old can make a speedy recovery as they look to keep up their challenge for the Premier League and Champions League crowns this season.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

The winger, who has 16 goals in 37 appearances this season, will hope to be fit in time for his team's next game - against Manchester City in the Premier League on March 31. The north London side are currently top of the table - ahead of Liverpool on goal difference and one point clear of reigning champions City.
