Bukayo Saka
England national soccer team member Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) will miss two consecutive international matches due to injury.
The British BBC reported on the 22nd (Korean time) that Saka was injured and excluded from the England national team for friendly matches against Brazil and Belgium.
Saka was named in the England squad's call-up list, but did not participate in training.
According to the Football Association (FA), Saka was informed of the injury earlier this week.
Saka returned to his team, Arsenal of the English Premier League (EPL), for ‘continuing treatment.’ The exact location and extent of his injuries are unknown.
The England national team will play a friendly match against Brazil at Wembley Stadium in London, England, on the 24th.
Then, on the 27th, Belgium will be invited to the same venue.
The England national team decided not to select a replacement player for this two-game series despite Saka's absence.
The England national team, led by manager Gareth Southgate, will play a final mock test against Bosnia and Herzegovina and Iceland in June before heading to the 2024 European Football Championship.
Meanwhile, EPL 1st place Arsenal (64 points) is scheduled to face 3rd place Manchester City (63 points) on the 1st of next month.
