October 26, 2025
Bukayo Saka came off midway through the second half of Arsenal’s 1-0 win over Crystal Palace. Eberechi Eze’s first half strike proved to be the difference at the Emirates as the summer signing scored his first goal since his summer arrival from the Eagles. However, head coach Mikel Arteta has revealed that Saka’s early withdrawal on Sunday came due to the England international’s struggles with an illness.
