Kai Havertz, an Arsenal player, has commended his teammate Bukayo Saka for his remarkable performance in Arsenal’s 3-0 Premier League win against Bournemouth on Saturday.
The Arsenal team dominated the game, extending their lead at the top of the table ahead of Manchester City, who have a game in hand.
Saka scored the first goal of the match right on the stroke of half-time, converting a contentious penalty that was awarded after Havertz had been fouled by Bournemouth goalkeeper Mark Travers.
Despite their superiority in the first half, Arsenal had to fight off a late Bournemouth surge in the second half, but goals from Leandro Trossard and Declan Rice sealed the points.
When questioned about Saka’s performance, Havertz said that he is an extraordinary player, and at only 22 years old, he has never seen a player like him.
The former Chelsea star added that Saka is unique and special in training, and England is fortunate to have him.
“He’s unbelievable and shows it every week,” said Havertz when asked to assess Saka’s contribution to Arsenal’s success this season.
“I think he’s 21 or 22 and I’ve never seen a player like this.
“England are very lucky. He’s hungry every day and if you see him in training he’s special.”
