Arsenal attacking midfielder Martin Odegaard has raved about his Gunners teammate Bukayo Saka on talkSPORT (8:25pm, March 19, 2023).

Odegaard has said that he loves playing with Arsenal and England international winger Saka.

The Norway international playmaker has noted that Saka was “great” for Arsenal against Crystal Palace in the London derby this past weekend.

Saka scored two goals and gave one assist for the Gunners in the Premier League game.

Mikel Arteta’s side won the London derby with ease.

HITC Verdict: Saka is a gem

In our view, Bukayo Saka is one of the best young players in the world and is a gem of a footballer.

Arsenal are a better team with Saka in it.

Now, it is very likely that Manchester City striker Erling Harland will be voted as the Premier League Player of the Season.

However, Saka could end up a close second.

Or maybe he could even win the award if Arsenal win the title.

The 21-year-old England international winger has scored 12 goals and given 10 assists in 28 Premier League matches for the Gunners so far this season.
