For Bukayo Saka, the injury rehabilitation period was a step back to recharge.
British public broadcaster 'BBC' reported on the 8th (Korea Standard Time) that "Saka of Arsenal said the inevitable rest due to a hamstring injury had been a really good time for him mentally."
Saka collapsed in late December last year due to an injury. He was diagnosed with a hamstring injury, and eventually went on a surgery table. It was a bad news for Arsenal, who had a fierce competition at the time. It was even more regrettable that he played a key role in Arsenal's attack along with Martin Oedegaard.
In the end, after about three months of rehabilitation, he made his return to injury against Fulham in the 30th round of the last league. However, he was not fully fit yet, so Mikel Arteta replaced Saka in the 21st minute of the second half. Saka scored in just seven minutes to announce his splendid return.
At the match against Everton in round 31, Saka replaced him for 45 minutes to elevate his physical condition. He thus made the decision to prepare for the quarterfinals at the UEFA Champions League. Arsenal play the first leg of the quarterfinals against Real Madrid on Tuesday. Arsenal desperately needed the 'core' Saka as Real showed off his fierce firepower and momentum recently. That's why Arteta took on special management.
Fortunately, Saka's physical condition is at its peak. He said, "It's really nice to be back. I feel refreshed mentally, too. When I first learned about the injury, it was really hard. 안전놀이터 It was hard to accept that I had to undergo surgery. But after the surgery, I only focused on getting stronger and returning."
Saka continued, "I've been playing without a sigh for the past five years. So this was the first proper rest of my life. It was a really good time for me, and I was able to do many things that I couldn't normally do. Mentally, it was a really good time for me."
