Arsenal winger, Bukayo Saka has withdrawn from the Three Lions of England squad due to an injury which is a big blow to coach Mikel Arteta’s drive for a Premier League title this season.
Bukayo Saka is arguably the most consistent English player in the Premier League in the last two seasons and he is often expected to bring that form to the Three Lions of England.
Coach Gareth Southgate brought him to the national team ahead of the ongoing FIFA international break but he has sustained a yet-to-be-disclosed injury in training.
Bukayo Saka was expected to lead England to two international friendly games this March – against Brazil on March 23 and against Belgium on March 26 – both at Wembley Stadium.
The 22-year-old winger did not participate in group training on Wednesday and his fitness status was confirmed this Thursday, March 21.
He will now have to return to Arsenal to start his recuperation process ahead of the last part of the 2023-2024 Premier League season.
