Saka sustained a hamstring injury during Arsenal’s 5-1 victory against Crystal Palace and could be sidelined for an extended period. He lasted less than 25 minutes before being forced to leave the match, later seen on crutches after receiving treatment.
While initial concerns about a serious injury requiring surgery have been alleviated, Saka is expected to be unavailable for approximately two months.
This situation has prompted Arsenal to explore options for bolstering their squad during this critical phase of the season. Samuel Chukwueze, who recently attracted interest from Aston Villa, has emerged as a viable option. According to MilanLive, Arsenal could provide an “interesting option” for the 25-year-old winger.
With Saka out, Arsenal are keen to add an attacker who can effectively cover the right wing. Chukwueze fits this profile and could help maintain the team’s competitive edge.
While Aston Villa remain a contender for his signature, the possibility of a return to La Liga has also been mentioned. Although no formal offers for Chukwueze have been made yet, AC Milan are looking to recover the €20 million plus €8 million they invested in him during the summer of 2023.
Reports in Italy suggest that a move away from the San Siro could be beneficial for Chukwueze’s career, presenting opportunities for both the player and the clubs involved.
