Arteta provides injury update on Arsenal duo for Newcastle game
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has provided an injury update on two players ahead of the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final at Newcastle United.
The Gunners registered a sensational 5-1 Premier League win against Manchester City last weekend with five different goalscorers.
The club will now turn their attention to the Carabao Cup. They need to overturn a 2-0 deficit to progress to the final at Wembley.
Ahead of the game, Arteta was asked for a fitness update. The Spaniard said that Ben White won't be available until after the winter break.
The manager added that he does not know the timescale for Saka's return.
He said: "There’s no news from the game against City, Ben [White] is still out. Hopefully after the break, he will be available, Saka not yet. I don't know."
Arsenal missed six big chances in the first leg against the Magpies, and they need to be more clinical in front of goal to secure a big-margin win.
