Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard will have scans on Sunday as Arsenal sweat on the pair’s fitness.
Odegaard and Saka were both forced to come off early during Arsenal’s 5-0 win over Leeds United on Saturday.
Odegaard suffered a shoulder injury in the first-half, while Saka left the pitch holding his hamstring minutes after the break.
Both players will undergo further assessment on Sunday, with Arteta fearful that Saka’s injury could be “significant”.
“For Bukayo to come off, for sure it looks like something that is significant,” he told BeIN Sports.
Odegaard was able to initially carry on after landing awkwardly on his shoulder, which Arteta will hope is a good sign.
The Gunners are already without Kai Havertz due to a knee injury and Ben White was absent from the squad for this win over Leeds.
Arsenal are next in action a week on Sunday, when they travel to Anfield to take on reigning Premier League champions Liverpool.
“Those (injuries to Odegaard and Saka) are the negatives of the day,” said Arteta. “So Martin felt something in his shoulder when he landed.
“We don’t know [how bad it is]. We’ll have to scan him tomorrow and understand a bit better.
“And Bukayo, while he was running with the ball, carrying the ball, wrestling with the defender, he felt something in his hamstring. So let’s see.
“I think it’s the other one (hamstring). It’s not the same one as the previous injury. But yeah, I mean, we’ve been two weeks and we already lost Kai, Martin and Bukayo.
“So it tells you how well-equipped you have to be in this league to manage and to maintain the level that we want.
“He (Saka) felt something while he was sprinting. That’s never a good sign. We’ll have to wait tomorrow.
“Speak to the doctors as well and understand better what he does. But he’s had these injuries before. He knows exactly the feeling of that. So let’s wait.”
