Journalist Graeme Bailey has shared an Arsenal transfer worry involving star player Bukayo Saka amid recent contract negotiations.

The Lowdown: Saka shines...

The versatile gem has been such a key player under manager Mikel Arteta in recent times, prompting talks over a new and improved deal as the Gunners aim to fend off suitors.

As per WhoScored, Saka finished the 2021/2022 season as Arsenal's best-performing player by average match rating - even totalling their most goals and joint-highest number of assists in the Premier League.

The 21-year-old has quite simply been a revelation under Arteta in north London so it's little surprise he could attract interest from major clubs.

The Latest: Arsenal 'worried' over Saka...

As per 90min and journalist Bailey on Twitter, Arsenal are now 'worried' about the interest of Man City in Saka as the Sky Blues allegedly push hard to sway the starlet into an Eastlands move.

However, the lighter side of this story for supporters is that the club are hopeful they can convince him to put pen to paper on fresh terms.

The Verdict: Crunch time...

Losing Saka to City would be an almighty blow to Arteta and supporters will praying that the winger does in fact opt to remain at Arsenal on a blockbuster new contract.

The England international has enjoyed a meteoric rise at Arsenal, even being called a 'guaranteed superstar' by members of the press.

John Cross of The Daily Mirror perhaps sums up Saka's unwavering quality best by calling his intelligence and decision-making 'off the scale' for his age.

It is imperative that Arsenal don't lose him as they continue their major rebuild.
