I think Arsenal was always the one club I wanted to go to, reveals Bukayo Saka

However, while Arsenal endured a terrible start to the current campaign, the club has done well to rebound back into competing for a top-four spot as the London club are currently sixth in the Premier League table, four points behind fourth-placed West Ham. The club's upturn in form has coincided with Saka's own progression as a player as he has added seven goals and four assists in 26 appearances this campaign. Saka has reiterated that the education he received at the Arsenal youth academy has aided him in his development.

"I think Arsenal was always the one I wanted to go to. It seemed like they had a lot of faith in their youth and there was a clear pathway when you could see the players coming up from Hale End to London Colney and my dad also really believed in the project and he loved Arsene Wenger. I think Arsenal was the club in the hearts of my family, so we chose them,” Saka told Sky Sports.
