Mikel Arteta explains why Bukayo Saka is out of Arsenal squad vs Luton Town

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided insight into why Bukayo Saka is absent from the matchday squad for the upcoming game against Luton Town. Saka, who sustained an injury during the recent match against Manchester City, is not even listed as a substitute.

In an interview with TNT Sports, Arteta explained, “He had to come off against Manchester City feeling something three days ago. He hasn’t been able to fully participate in training, so we have made the decision not to risk him in this game.”

In Saka’s absence, Kai Havertz will lead the attack, supported by Leandro Trossard and Reiss Nelson. The Gunners are aiming to secure a victory that could potentially propel them to the top of the Premier League table, even if only temporarily.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting match as Arsenal looks to continue their impressive form and climb the league standings.
