Bukayo Saka Returns To Light Training With Arsenal In Dubai

Bukayo Saka has been training lightly with Arsenal (Instagram/@arsenal).

JAKARTA - Bukayo Saka has given Arsenal enthusiasm on time by returning to light training after his hamstring injury.

The 23-year-old England winger has not appeared since late December 2024, when he suffered a hamstring injury in the match against Crystal Palace.

Saka had to undergo surgery afterwards. Mikel Arteta - who is not sure when Saka will return - was unsuccessful in his efforts to improve Arsenal's front line which was struggling in January 2025.

However, Saka traveled for the mid-season training camp of the north London club in Dubai.

On Monday, February 10, 2025, he was seen undergoing training at the fitness center while preparing to return to full contact training.

Saka is expected to return to action in March 2025, when Arsenal hopes to perform brilliantly in Premier League and Champions League matches.

Arsenal, which takes advantage of a rare 11-day hiatus on schedule to train in Dubai, will face Leicester City in the league on Saturday, February 15, 2025, with the aim of reducing the gap with leaders Liverpool.

Defender Ben White also has the opportunity to return after a knee injury, which has kept him out since November 2024.
