f Mikel Arteta in December 2019, Saka’s career took off. Arteta, a former Arsenal captain, has played a significant role in shaping Saka into one of Europe’s premier right-wingers.
Playing Style
Initially, Saka was utilized on the left wing and even as a left-back. However, he found his ideal position on the right wing, where his ability to cut inside with his dominant left foot became a standout feature. His playing style has drawn comparisons to Bayern Munich legend Arjen Robben.
Influence and Achievements
Saka’s impact at Arsenal is substantial, and his influence extends to the England national team. He gained global recognition during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, marking his debut on the world stage.
Personal Life and Achievements
At 22 years old (born September 5, 2001), Saka has already achieved significant milestones. In November 2019, just after turning 18, he purchased a £2.3 million six-bedroom mansion in Hertfordshire. This move was a reflection of his rising status, marking his transition from the family home in Greenford, Ealing—a semi-detached house five miles from Wembley where he grew up.
Saka’s new home, located closer to Arsenal’s London Colney training ground, features a spa and walk-in wardrobes. Over the years, he has made several modifications to personalize his mansion, reflecting his success and personal growth.
Bukayo Saka continues to be a key figure for Arsenal and a rising star on the international stage, embodying the blend of talent, dedication, and personal achievement.
