Bukayo Saka may be unable to return to action until April due to his current injury, according to a report by Sami Mokbel of Sports Mail.
The specialist has recommended that Saka undergo surgery to fix the problem, which could potentially keep him out of the game for a longer period of time than initially anticipated.
Arsenal had hoped to have Saka back in training before the end of February, with the expectation that he would be able to return to action in early March.
However, the new development is a setback for the English winger and his club, who will now have to find alternative solutions for the foreseeable future. Saka could choose to opt for conservative treatment instead of surgery, but there is a risk of a relapse during the long and demanding season.
Mikel Arteta’s team will need their winger fit and healthy for the business end of the campaign without worrying about a relapse near the end.
