Manchester City have denied stories linking them with a move for Arsenal and England forward Bukayo Saka.
City already have a lot of attacking talent at their disposal – boosted by the signings of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvárez – so, despite Saka’s huge talent and potential, he is not currently on their radar.
The news will come as a huge relief to Arsenal fans as the club attempt to tie the 20-year old down to a new ling-term deal at the Emirates.
Saka, who has just been named Arsenal’s Player of the Year for a second successive season, was valued earlier this week as the 15th most valuable player in Europe.
He has two years left on his current contract at the Emirates, and is currently one of the lowest paid players n the first-team squad per the terms he signed when he was still a teenager.

He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each.
