Bukayo Saka is unlikely to start England’s World Cup clash with Ghana as Thomas Tuchel continues to manage the Arsenal winger’s Achilles issue.

Bukayo Saka is expected to remain on England’s bench against Ghana as his Achilles issue is managed, giving Arsenal another reminder of the workload risk around their key winger.

Arsenal have reportedly seen an opening Jeremy Monga bid rejected by Leicester City, with the Gunners expected to return for the 16-year-old winger.

Gabriel Magalhaes started as Brazil beat Haiti 3-0 at the 2026 World Cup, while Arsenal teammate Gabriel Martinelli featured from the bench.
