Mini bio
How it started.
Saka grew up in Ealing and played for Greenford Celtic. In his own account of those early years, he remembers trials with several London clubs, a spell training at Watford and playing for his school teams alongside academy football.
Finding his place.
He came through Arsenal’s youth system and made his senior debut at 17 in November 2018. The 2019/20 season brought regular first-team football, including time at left-back. He developed into a right winger under Mikel Arteta and made his England debut against Wales on 8 October 2020.
Growing with club and country.
Fans voted him England Men’s Player of the Year in both 2022 and 2023, and his fellow professionals named him PFA Young Player of the Year in 2023. In 2026, he helped Arsenal win the Premier League and scored a hat-trick in England’s World Cup third-place win over France.
