Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has revealed Bukayo Saka will be unavailable for their Premier League trip to Manchester City on Sunday.
Saka has been out of action since the Gunners lost 2-0 to the Gunners in the Carabao Cup on March 22.
The 24-year-old winger is yet to recover from a suspected achilles problem and will not face City this weekend.
Mikel Merino will also not make a return from a broken foot, even though he is no longer wearing a protective boot.
“Bukayo is out. That is for sure,” Arteta told reporters on Friday.
“With B, we are handling it to protect the play first of all and then to perform as well as he possibly can.
“He’s just starting to do some stuff so let’s see that progression, how quickly we can go through it and then wait. But at the moment it’s not available.
“Bukayo is out, that’s for sure, Mikel is out as well.
“We will have a solution, whatever happens. We are so used to this, this season. Whatever happens, we will have the right solution.”
