Arsenal optimistic Saka avoided serious injury - but doubtful for Slavia Prague trip

Arsenal are optimistic Bukayo Saka avoided a serious injury against Sheffield United.

Saka is being assessed by club medics after limping off in the 69th minute.

The Gunners remain hopeful Saka suffered a dead leg, per the Daily Mail.

The 19-year-old is still a major doubt to face Slavia Prague in their vital Europa League quarter-final second leg.

Martin Odegaard and Emile Smith Rowe are also in serious doubt of missing the Prague trip, with the tie evenly poised at 1-1.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is expected to return after missing the 3-0 win at Bramall Lane.

But Mikel Arteta will be without David Luiz and Kieran Tierney.
