EPL: ‘I didn’t mean it’ – Saka apologies to Liverpool star

Arsenal star, Bukayo Saka has apologised to Kostas Tsimikas for breaking the Liverpool player’s collarbone at Anfield on Saturday.

Tsimikas was forced off with injury during Arsenal’s Premier League 1-1 draw with Liverpool after clattering into his own coach Jurgen Klopp following a battle for the ball with Saka.

The Greek left-back was taken to hospital for treatment after the challenge.

Speaking about the incident, Saka told Sky Sports: ‘”I have heard he’s gone to hospital so I want to apologise to him.

“I didn’t mean it, of course. For me it was just a 50-50 and I have gone shoulder to shoulder with him.

“I didn’t see but he must have taken a bad fall, I didn’t see that he went into Jurgen Klopp either.

I was focussed on running forward because I didn’t think it was a foul.”
