Bukayo Saka sends an emotional message to Arsenal fans after making goalscoring return from injury

Bukayo Saka has sent out a heartfelt message to Arsenal supporters after his dream return from injury on Tuesday night.

The England star was out for over three months with a hamstring injury but needed just seven minutes on the pitch to score in Arsenal's 2-1 victory over Fulham.

Saka received a huge reception from the Emirates crowd when he was brought off the bench in the 66th minute to replace teenage wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri.

And the 23-year-old repaid his supporters when he nodded home from close range in the 73rd minute to double Arsenal's lead after Mikel Merino's first-half opener.
