Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has a few deadlines to keep in mind over the next few months with one that will have an impact on Bukayo Saka in particular.
One, of course, is transfer deadline day for the upcoming summer window which, as confirmed by the Premier League opens later this month and closes on Friday 1 September 2023, thus allowing the Spaniard plenty of time to finalise his senior squad for the first half of the 2023/24 campaign.
Three days later and another deadline will be upon Arteta. This one will be in regard to naming their Champions League squad for the group phase with the Gunners returning to Europe's top table for the first time since 2017 after finishing as runners-up to Manchester City this season.
