Saka is Premier League's best young player, says Arsenal team-mate Lacazette

The teenager is enjoying a breakout season with the Gunners and Lacazette thinks he should be regarded as the league's best youngster

Alexandre Lacazette believes Arsenal prospect Bukayo Saka has a claim to being the Premier League's best young player after breaking into the Gunners' first-team.

Saka, 18, has been a revelation for Arsenal this term, playing 26 times across all competitions having enjoyed an eye-catching pre-season.

Predominantly a winger, Saka has been used at full-back recently and taken to the new role with impressive ease, remaining a useful outlet despite operating from slightly further back.
