Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided good news on Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli following the win over Sheffield United.

  • Man Utd star to sign new contract in next 24 hours
  • Napoli & Atletico want to sign Man Utd star for £24m


  • The Gunners continued their stunning form in the Premier League with a resounding 6-0 triumph over the Blades on the road.

    Bukayo Saka continued his fine form with another two assists, but he was surprisingly substituted at the half-time interval.

    When asked for an update after the game, Arteta said that he was feeling a bit sick and it was also an ideal opportunity for Fabio Vieira.

    He said: "He was feeling a bit sick and as well we have Fabio who we have to give minutes. It was great opportunity [for us]."

    Meanwhile, when asked about the condition of Martinelli, Arteta said that it was a slight cut on his foot which forced him off.

    He added: "We had a little issue with Gabi Martinelli as well, he had a slight cut on his foot and we have to wait and see how he is."
