Bukayo Saka discusses his ideal 21st birthday gift and sends a message to Manchester United

 

This Sunday, Bukayo Saka will celebrate her 21st birthday quietly.

And the loved ones he will be spending his milestone birthday with don't need to worry too much about what to get him; what he really wants isn't something their money can buy him.

Saka declared that defeating Manchester United would make the ideal gift. "Nothing extraordinary; I'll just celebrate with my family and friends. Definitely looking forward to becoming 21."

While Saka is maturing off the field, he is modest enough to realize that there is still a lot of football knowledge to learn and he is determined not to take his success for granted.

I still have a lot to learn and a long way to go in terms of my development, he continued. "I've played a lot of matches and some significant matches, which has sped up my learning, but there's still a lot to learn," the player said.

Saka stated that playing United again will only broaden his experience "Because United is a terrific team and is currently playing well, defeating them would be a huge accomplishment. We will be really confident moving ahead if we can go there and win.

"It is a unique rivalry. I've witnessed previous matches with their heavy tackling and brawls. There needs to be a balance between strategies and enthusiasm in games like these.

"You can't let the other team have more passion than you because that would make things challenging. Passion is incredibly crucial. Right now, we're in a good spot. We'll attempt to bring some trophies, continue to perform at our best, and win more important games as our next move."

Mikel Arteta, the manager, claims that Saka's recent success and, more recently, Gabriel Martinelli's, demonstrate what a dynamic organization Arsenal is.

He stated: "What they're doing in a huge club is quite uncommon. However, we have unique abilities, exceptional personnel, and a club that is eager to showcase players from our program. The consequences of this are evident."

This season, Martinelli in particular has been a revelation.
