BUKAYO SAKA has sent Arsenal fans into panic after leaving the England squad.
The winger was set to be part of the Three Lions team for friendlies against Brazil and Belgium.
But he has withdrawn from the squad – supposedly as a precaution.
SunSport understands Saka, 22, has felt pain in right Achilles this week.
Yesterday, he trained away from the rest of the group to partake in an “individualised programme indoors”.
He joined Harry Kane, Jordan Henderson and Cole Palmer in working away from the squad.

The news of his withdrawal comes just ten days before Arsenal’s potentially title-deciding game against Manchester City.
Gunners fans are now worried that their starboy won’t make it for the crucial clash.
One said: “Season over.”
Another added: “Arsenal aren’t winning anything.”
Others were more positive, commenting: “He’s focused on the league.”
Arsenal have several big games coming up in a congested April, with meetings with Luton, Brighton, Aston Villa, Wolves and Tottenham to come after playing City.
They also have their Champions League quarter-final double-header against Bayern Munich.
Saka’s withdrawal hands Chelsea’s Cole Palmer and West Ham’s Jarrod Bowen a possible start on the right-wing.
