New update could change Saliba expected injury return date
New update could change Saliba expected injury return date Reports this week suggested William Saliba could be back in action in November, but sources close to the player have given a slightly less optimistic timeline. Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images Reports from France this week suggested that Arsenal centre-back William Saliba is back running again, with a recent x-ray confirming that his recovery is on track. According to those claims, Saliba is desperate to start playing matches again, and he’s on schedule for a return in November. But that timeline may prove overly-optimistic, with other reports in the English media this week giving a longer timeframe for the French international’s absence.

Yet Taylor adds that sources close to Saliba’s camp are still suggesting a December return, despite “unfounded whispers” that the player could be back in November.

If Saliba isn’t back for those games, the December fixtures against Spurs (A, Dec. 5th), Real Madrid (H, Dec. 9th), and Manchester United (H, Dec. 19th) are the big ones to keep an eye on.
