Rice and Saka injuries 'don't look good' - Arteta

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says that injuries to England duo Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice "don't look good" after they were taken off injured during Sunday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea.

Rice, who was playing with a broken toe, was withdrawn in the 71st minute before Saka was taken off after receiving treatment on a leg injury 10 minutes later.

"It doesn’t look good, because for two players of that importance to tell you they cannot continue in the game, it’s not good news." said Arteta.

Arsenal have had to deal with a number of injuries to key players this season and Saka also missed two games after picking up an injury playing for England in the last international break.
