Bukayo Saka reveals Thierry Henry called him after his Euro 2020 final penalty heartbreak and now reaches out to him after most Arsenal games - but admits his regret at not meeting former boss Arsene Wenger

Bukayo Saka has revealed Thierry Henry called him to offer support following his missed penalty in the Euro 2020 final, with the Arsenal legend continuing to mentor the England winger.

Saka missed England's fifth and final penalty against Italy at Wembley last summer as Gareth Southgate's side missed out on being crowned European champions.

The 21-year-old suffered racist abuse on social media following the final, alongside fellow forwards Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho, who also missed their respective spot-kicks.
