Bukayo Saka has been recognized for his contribution to Arsenal’s surprising championship run by being awarded the Men’s PFA Young Player of the Year.
WHAT OCCURED? Saka defeated Erling Haaland, the Premier League’s leading scorer, and great midfielder Moises Caicedo to win the coveted prize. At Manchester’s Lowry Theatre, he personally received the award. Arsenal’s finest season in almost two decades was sparked by the winger, and the Gunners led the Premier League championship race for the duration of the year before Manchester City finally came up to them in May. For Mikel Arteta’s team, Saka produced eight assists in addition to his 14 goals scored.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: The 21-year-old not only defeated Haaland and Caicedo for the Young Player of the Year Award, but he also defeated Brighton’s teen striker Evan Ferguson, Aston Villa’s Jacob Ramsey, and teammate Gabriel Martinelli of Arsenal.
