Some Arsenal fans on Twitter believe that Bukayo Saka has dropped a big hint about his intentions.

The linked-away winger helped the Gunners to a 2-0 win away to Southampton on Thursday night.

Straight after the win, Saka, who is only contracted to Arsenal until next summer, posted two photos on his Instagram stories and one was a fist bump with head coach Mikel Arteta, followed by a couple of love heart emojis.

Arteta told Football London afterwards that he has ‘total belief’ in the 18-year-old winger.

And Arsenal fans on Twitter believe that his social media activity might be a big clue that he’s going to sign a new deal.

Here’s how they reacted to the Instagram posts:

What a huge boost this would be for the Emirates Stadium club.

It’s been a testing couple of weeks for Arsenal, who have lost two of their three Premier League games, and lost quite a few big players – like Pablo Mari, Bernd Leno and Gabriel Martinelli – to injury.

But a contract extension for Saka would change the complexion and restore a sense of optimism to what looks like being a write-off of a season, as Arteta’s side sit ninth with seven games to go.
