Arsenal handed Bukayo Saka contract boost as Jack Grealish shows major risk of £100m transfer

I can imagine many Arsenal fans woke up this morning concerned by the reports that Manchester City are beginning to 'ramp up' interest in Bukayo Saka, but there's no need to panic just yet.

The Daily Mail say that the current Premier League champions are showing an increased interest in the winger, highlighting that it comes at a 'critical point' in the Gunners' attempts to tie him down to a new contract. It's added that Liverpool are also strong admirers, but neither club is expected to make a move this summer.

In a more positive development, the Manchester Evening News is today reporting that City have distanced themselves from the links to Saka, with sources indicating that the forward is 'not in their plans for this or subsequent transfer windows.' However, you don't just need to look at the reports to take some encouragement over the outcome of Saka's future.
