Arsenal make the trip to Lens on Tuesday but will be concerned with the fitness of Bukayo Saka.

Following treatment Mikel Arteta was in fact forced to take him out for Fábio Vieira, and the youngster headed right down the tunnel.

Looking at the schedule, it’s a huge blow for the Gunners across all competitions.

Arsenal take on Manchester City and Chelsea back-to-back in the Premier League before facing Sevilla away in the Champions League.

Arteta and company will hope it’s nothing serious.
