Saka is the latest star that is giving Arteta a headache, after the injury to captain Martin Odegaard.

Arteta said when asked for an update: "I don’t know. I made two changes with the front players and suddenly he’s down. 

“I looked at the bench and the options that we had and we had to adapt. I don’t know exactly what it is but he could not continue.

"We still have to wait and see the news. He certainly wasn't available to play today," added Arteta.
