Former England star Emile Heskey has labelled Arsenal's Bukayo Saka as the Three Lions' 'MVP' and highlighted his club form as a key factor for his brilliant World Cup debut performance against Iran.
The Gunners star is attracting interest from Premier League rivals Manchester City and Liverpool as talks over a contract renewal at the Emirates Stadium continue. Saka has been one of the standout performers for Arsenal since breaking into the senior team and has carried his brilliant Arsenal form into the World Cup.
Saka's double helped England to an opening game victory against Iran at the Qatar 2022 World Cup but it was the quality of his two strikes that showed his immense ability. Gary Neville, ex-Gunners star Theo Walcott and Saka's Arsenal teammates have all lauded the 21-year-old for his stellar display after Gareth Southgate took the decision to start Saka ahead of Phil Foden.
