Bukayo Saka suffered an injury which kept him from playing during Arsenal’s final game in the Premier League. Saka picked up a muscular injury, but despite the injury, he was chosen to play for the Euro 2024 for England. Moreover, Saka also missed England‘s warm-up games against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Fortunately, just days before the contest, he was given a go signal to participate during their opener match. Additionally, he is already spotted to be participating to England‘s trainings recently. According to sources, Saka is fit enough to start for England‘s first match, easing the injury scare for the squad.
Bukayo Saka is back
England midfielder, Bukayo Saka, has been undergoing limited training since returning to the camp. He was spotted with his teammates at an open session in Jena on Tuesday. If Saka starts on Sunday, he is expected to start on the right-wing, with Phil Foden playing on the left. If he doesn’t return, England has other options, including Foden, Cole Palmer, and Jarrod Bowen. Midfield could take on various forms, with Trent Alexander-Arnold potentially playing alongside Bellingham and Declan Rice in the center. Conor Gallagher, Kobbie Mainoo, and Adam Wharton could also play instead.
England trained at the Jena Stadium in a UEFA-organised public session, with Jude Bellingham returning to the group after a rest following his Champions League win. Lewis Dunk is set to return to training due to a knee problem, and Manchester United’s Tom Heaton is now with the squad as a “training goalkeeper” for Jordan Pickford, Aaron Ramsdale, and Dean Henderson.
