Arsenal's Bukayo Saka 'expected to be fit for West Ham United clash'

Arsenal are reportedly expecting Bukayo Saka to be fit for Sunday's Premier League clash with West Ham United.

The 20-year-old bagged a second penalty in two Premier League games versus Manchester United last weekend before limping off the field in the second period.

Saka's substitution sparked concern over his availability for the impending London derby, with Mikel Arteta admitting that the England international would need assessing this week.

However, journalist Connor Humm reports that Saka has been training with the rest of the squad as normal and should be fine to line up against David Moyes's side at the weekend.

Saka's return would leave Kieran Tierney and Thomas Partey as the Gunners' only two confirmed absentees, with Takehiro Tomiyasu returning as a late substitute in last week's win over the Red Devils.

Saka now boasts 11 goals and five assists from 33 Premier League appearances this season as Arsenal aim to maintain their two-point lead over Tottenham Hotspur in the top four of the Premier League table.
