Arsenal’s Mikel Arteta has confirmed that Bukayo Saka’s injury is “not serious” and that the forward will be back fit sooner rather than later.

Saka limped off in England’s loss against Greece and subsequently missed the match against Finland but the England interim manager Lee Carsley suggested his omission was a precaution.

It is not a serious injury. He is evolving really well. He has done a few things in the last two days. He wasn’t fit enough to play with the national team in the second game but we are hopeful. We have a training session this afternoon, he did some bits yesterday, let’s see if he can make it on time.

[Kai] Havertz had a few issues he’s been dealing with that. If he trains well today, he has a great chance t be fit and available,.

The only player we haven’t seen as of yet is Miguel Almiron. He was flying yesterday so we anticipate we’ll see him this morning. Everyone else is good and they’ve come back in good fettle.

Alexander [Isak] has trained and trained well. He trained from the start of this week and has looked good. So, at this moment in time he would be in contention [to face Brighton.
