Arsenal manager, Unai Emery, has said Bukayo Saka is “working and improving”, following the teenager’s impressive outing against Manchester United on Monday.
At 18 years and 125 days old, Saka became the youngest player to start a match between the two sides in the Premier League.
Emery was full of praise for the teenager, who assisted Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, as his team forced the Red Devils to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford.
“I think he’s working and improving, being mature and also playing matches in front of each player and each team as tonight against Manchester United.
“But his work is natural and he is improving. He is helping us now as an important player.
“We are going to work with him with him with calm, with patience, but if he deserves to take minutes and to take confidence for helping us with his performance, that is fantastic for us,” Emery was quoted as saying by the Arsenal website.
