On Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice, Mikel Arteta does not have good news for Arsenal fans following their disappointing draw away at Chelsea on Sunday evening, which extended their winless run in the league to four.
The visitors took the lead through awasteful Gabriel Martinelli on the hour mark, but the goal was cancelled out by Pedro Neto ten minutes later as it finished all square in the Stamford Bridge.
Both Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice were taken off shortly after Chelsea’s equalizer for apparent injuries, and Arteta has now commented on the condition English duo.

Arteta on Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice injury
Speaking at full-time, Mikel Arteta responded to questions on the injuries to Rice and Saka by saying:
“They don’t look very good. I don’t know [if it’s long-term]. They both couldn’t finish the game, so not good.”
Both Bukayo Saka and Declan Rice will have a period of rest to recover if they do miss out of the international break games but the duo will be huge miss for England, as Thomas Tuchel set to get his reign underway with meetings with Greece and Ireland.
