Ola Aina, a Nottingham Forest defender, has expressed his admiration for Bukayo Saka, Arsenal's forward, stating that he is the Premier League's best player. Saka's impressive performance this season has earned him widespread acclaim.
Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina has praised Bukayo Saka ’s extraordinary consistency and named the Arsenal forward as the best player in the Premier League . Saka has enjoyed a barnstorming start to the season for Arsenal , racking up five goals and ten assists in the English top flight, with the north London outfit sitting third after 17 games.
The 23-year-old England international has also been in fine form in the Champions League this term, notching four goals and two assists to put the Gunners in a strong position to qualify for the knockout phase. However, Saka was forced off with a hamstring injury in Arsenal’s 5-1 win over Crystal Palace last weekend and Mikel Arteta is expected to be without his star attacker for several weeks across an important period of the campaign. It means the likes of Gabriel Martinelli, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus will likely have to step up in Saka’s absence in Arsenal’s upcoming matches, starting at home to Ipswich in two days’ time. A month ago, Saka opened the scoring as Arsenal ran out 3-0 victors over Forest, who have been one of the surprise packages of the Premier League season and sit just one place behind Arteta’s men in the table. Aina faced off against Saka at the Emirates that day and it’s clear the winger – who also assisted Thomas Partey’s super second-half strike – made a big impression. Aina claimed Saka was the Premier League’s best player Asked whether Manchester City midfielder Rodri is the best player in the Premier League, Aina told the FILTHYFELLAS podcast: ‘I think he’s a sick player. ‘He’s sick and he makes City tick, everyone can see it and he’s won his Ballon d’Or and whatever
