Bukayo Saka couldn't hide his feelings on Man City during Arsenal contract talks

Bukayo Saka was not swayed by interest from Manchester City during contract talks with Arsenal - due to the impressive work that has been done by Mikel Arteta.

Saka, 21, has evolved into one of Arsenal's most influential players since Arteta succeeded Unai Emery back in December 2019 and has spearheaded their unlikely Premier League title challenge this term by notching 12 goals and 10 assists in 28 games.

The Arsenal hierarchy have been locked in talks with the talented winger for months in a bid to tie their talisman down to a new long-term deal. And an agreement has now been reached in principle, with Saka ready to shun interest from elsewhere in order to put pen-to-paper on a new contract worth around £15million-a-year.
