Arsenal fear Bukayo Saka will miss around two months with the hamstring injury he suffered against Crystal Palace.

Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta confirmed on Monday that his forward will miss ‘many weeks’ with the injury suffered in the first half of his side’s 5-1 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday, an injury that saw Saka leave Selhurst Park on crutches.

Saka is set to see a hamstring specialist following initial scans after which the picture of his recovery will become clearer.

The 23-year-old has suffered three hamstring complaints already this season, though the current injury - believed to be tear - is the most serious.
