Former Arsenal captain, Thierry Henry, has admitted he has a soft spot for Bukayo Saka.
Saka came through the Premier League club’s academy and is now regarded as one of the best players in the country.
Henry has now said he never expected the 23-year-old to hit the levels he has in his career.
“I have a soft spot for him. He’s my favourite player. He’s been there for a long time.
“He’s so nice. I never thought he was going to reach the level we’re seeing.
“I challenged him the other day to work a bit on his free kicks,” Henry told BBC.
