Arsenal star Bukayo Saka was seen screaming in pain after his teammate Declan Rice flicked his ear during a training session at London Colney.
Mikel Arteta was putting his players through their paces yesterday ahead of the game at Seville tonight. Saturday’s goalscorer Rice decided to have a bit of fun with his good pal Saka, but the latter didn’t enjoy it too much.

Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka screams in pain after Declan Rice flicks his ear
Arsenal‘s form going into the game against Sevilla in the Champions League tonight isn’t particularly great.
The win against Manchester City was absolutely fantastic for the Gunners, but they lost to Lens before that game and they’re now picking themselves up after a draw against Chelsea.
However, despite all that, the mood around the squad in training seems to be very good ahead of the big game in Spain tonight.
HaytersTV released a video of the Arsenal squad in training at London Colney yesterday. Out of nowhere, Declan Rice appears to flick Bukayo Saka‘s ear before running away.
The Arsenal winger can be seen holding his ears – he appears to be in serious pain and even lets out a loud scream. Rice then comes back to console Saka and offers him his ear to flick in order to make the youngster feel a little bit better.

Saka can be seen giving it a go, but unfortunately for him, Rice barely even has a reaction.
Saka and Rice will be key vs Sevilla
Arsenal need to get back to winning ways in the Champions League after their defeat to RC Lens in their last game in the competition.
Sevilla changed their boss earlier this month, and Arsenal fans know better than most others about the new manager bounce.
However, Rice and Saka are expected to start for Arsenal tonight, and both of them had a good end to the game at Chelsea. That would’ve given them confidence and they must be raring to go.
If the two Englishmen have a good game, Arsenal should be able to pick up a fairly comfortable victory.
