"Bukayo Saka has signed a five-year deal to remain at Arsenal, according to reports this afternoon. The contract extension - reportedly worth more than £300,000 a week - was agreed several weeks ago but the England international has now put pen to paper in another major boost for the title-chasing Gunners. Saka had 18 months left on his remaining deal and would have become a target for Europe's major clubs had the situation dragged on beyond the summer."
"In reality, there was little chance of that happening with the 24-year old eager to remain at the Emirates having come through Arsenal's Hale End academy to become one of its star players. Saka has made almost 300 appearances for Arsenal since making his debut against Vorskla Poltava in 2018 and won 48 caps for England. He is expected to be a key man for Thomas Tuchel's Three Lions at this summer's World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico."
