'Huge blow' Saka's hamstring tear leaves Arsenal scrambling for options

Saka was pictured leaving Selhurst Park on crutches after he limped off during the first half of his side's 5-1 victory, with Arteta confirming yesterday that the 23-year-old has torn a hamstring. The Arsenal manager described it as a huge blow and also revealed that back-up Raheem Sterling is likely to be out for several weeks after picking up a knee injury in training.

Asked how he plans to replace Saka - who has scored nine goals and provided 13 assists this season - Arteta admitted he has yet to formulate a plan but is hoping that existing players at the club can help to fill the void, rather than having to sign reinforcements next month. It is possible - likely, even - that Gabriel Martinelli will play on the right of Arsenal's attack instead, with Leandro Trossard taking his place on the left.
