Arsenal star Bukayo Saka has recently revealed some of his methods to recover and recuperate in time for the team’s intense and demanding schedule. As per reports from Arsenal Fanatics News, Saka, who is in tune with his Nigerian heritage, leans on some of the traditional foods and methods when it comes to recovery.
The player’s family are closely-involved in supplying him with any foods that are part of his dietary requirements. Some foods are purely to aid his recovery from playing in high-intensity games every three days on average. As per the report, Saka’s family sends him medicinal garlic, ginger and other bitter plants that aid digestion.
Concerned about hit fitness, Bukayo Saka also does not consume alcohol or eat any processed foods. The results of this can be seen on the pitch as the 23-year-old has shown incredible availability and consistency for the Gunners on the pitch.
Arsenal staff amazed by Bukayo Saka recovery methods
Seeing the foods Saka takes and the preparation he puts in before each game, Arsenal’s doctors and physiotherapists have been amazed by his dedication and commitment. However, to help the player follow his routines, the club has to take some additional steps.
The Gunners are required to send samples of items that Saka consumes to the Premier League headquarters in order to seek their approval. While the process is lengthy and also expensive, the board and other members of staff deem it necessary to maintain the perfect environment for Bukayo Saka to thrive in his role with Arsenal.
So much is the player and his family’s dedication to their heritage, that Saka’s family has opened up a African health foods shop in London. They have chosen not to affiliate Saka with the business so as to keep their operations free from being included with any other tourist activities.
Having returned to the squad from injury to face Liverpool, Saka will look to find his form from the start of the season and help the Gunners get back on track.
