Bukayo Saka wins PFA Young Player of the Year award after starring for Mikel Arteta in Arsenal's title charge

Bukayo Saka has become the first Arsenal player in 12 years to win the men's PFA Young Player of the Year award, having edged out Erling Haaland to the gong.

Saka has been nominated for the past four seasons and has now finally been crowned as the victor for the first time.

The Arsenal and England star was influential in Arsenal's title bid, and was key in securing their return to Champions League.

He has beat off competition from team-mate Gabriel Martinelli, as well as Erling Haaland, Moises Caicedo, Evan Ferguson, and Jacob Ramsey.
