Bukayo Saka set Ballon d'Or target by Arsenal legend amid Erling Haaland comparison

Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is enjoying one of his best seasons at the Emirates Stadium after registering 23 goal contributions in 38 games this term. The Hale End star has been pivotal in helping the Gunners challenge for the Premier League title this season.

Mikel Arteta has helped develop Saka into a world-class winger and now Arsenal are just 10 games away from their first Premier League title in nearly 20 years. The 21-year-old has proven he is capable of performing at the highest level following an exceptional display for England at the World Cup - scoring three goals during the tournament in Qatar.

Saka is said to be close to signing a new £300,000-per-week contract with the north Londoners. This comes after the England international extended his current deal by a further 12 months until 2024, as football.london reported earlier this year.
