Bukayo Saka sends four-word message to Arsenal fans after 'difficult' injury update
Bukayo Saka has issued a message to Arsenal supporters as he continues his road to recovery from injury.
Saka is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury he suffered in the Gunners' 5-1 win over Crystal Palace last month. The England international is now expected to be in recovery from the injury for several weeks as Arsenal continue their quest to beat the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City to the Premier League title.
Before the injury, Saka had scored nine goals with 13 assists for Arsenal in all competitions. Saka underwent a procedure last month for the injury and is now in the early stages of his recovery.

It remains to be seen when Saka will return to the Arsenal matchday squad, but the 23-year-old has now sent a message to the club's fans.
"See you in 2025," wrote Saka on Instagram on New Year's Eve, accompanied by a heart emoji.
Arsenal return to Premier League action this evening as they travel to face Brentford on New Year's Day. It will be several more weeks until Saka is fit enough to feature for the Gunners again, with Arteta confirming last week that it will be at least two months on the sidelines for the Arsenal No.7.
"He [Saka] had a procedure," Arteta told reporters after Arsenal's win over Ipswich Town on December 27. "Everything went well, but unfortunately he will be out for many, many weeks."
"I think it will be more than two months," Arteta added. "I don’t know exactly how much longer. It will depend on how the scar tissue starts to heal, the first week or so, the mobility of that. Let’s see it’s very difficult to say."
