Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has heaped praise on Arsenal star Bukayo Saka, comparing him to Manchester City's Riyad Mahrez.
Saka has established himself as one of the most exciting talents in the Premier League, netting six goals and providing a further six assists in the league this term. It's that kind of output that has propelled the Gunners to first in the current standings, sitting five points clear of Pep Guardiola's City.
Now, former England international Ferdinand has hailed the 21-year-old's ability, claiming that he would rather face Mahrez than Saka on his FIVE YouTube channel. "If I had to play against one or the other, I'd rather play against Mahrez over Saka, because [of] Saka's pace," Ferdinand said.
