Mikel Arteta has allayed Arsenal fans' fears ahead of the North London derby and says that Bukayo Saka is "fine."
The 21-year-old winger was hauled off after 75 minutes of the Gunners' hard-fought 3-0 win away to Oxford United in the FA Cup on Monday. Arsenal next travel to face bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur this Sunday and supporters briefly feared that Saka would be unavailable for the mouth-watering encounter.
But Arteta was able to smile about the situation post-match, affirming to ITV : "He's fine, he's fine." The England international took his fair share of hits at the Kasam Stadium, as two well-taken goals from Eddie Nketiah and a header from Mohamed Elneny gave the Gunners safe passage through to the FA Cup fourth round, where they'll face Manchester City.
