Saka Ready To Gamble With Fitness For England's FIFA World Cup Chances
FIFA World Cup: England winger Bukayo Saka said he is "ready to gamble with his fitness" for England's World Cup opener against Croatia on Thursday (IST) amid concerns with his Achilles.
Saka, who will make his 50th appearance for England, has been struggling with an Achilles issue. He missed the March international break and seven games for the Arsenal but returned to help his club side lift the Premier League title for the first time in 22 years.
He played just 27 minutes of England's final warm-up game against Costa Rica, but speaking ahead of the World Cup opener against Croatia, the winger said he is ready to be selected.
