Mikel Arteta says Bukayo Saka is “much better” after missing the last two games with a hip injury.

Saka was due to start in the win over Leeds before pulling out in the warm up, and them missed the Carabao Cup win over Chelsea.

“His hip is much better, and hopefully very soon he will be with us,” Arteta said on the winger.

Arteta says Martin Odegaard is also nearing a return after missing the game against Chelsea.

“Martin will be a matter of days,” he said.

Jurrien Timber, meanwhile, is fit to play against Sunderland.

Arteta also addressed Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior’s comments about Arsenal perhaps being disrespectful by training in Chelsea’s half before the second leg of the Carabao Cup game.

Arteta said: “I don’t know, it’s his opinion and we respect everybody.

“At any point, if one of the staff members did that, we apologise.”
