"Huge fan" - Guardiola targets Arsenal star, the Gunners can't afford to lose him

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola is a “huge fan” of Arsenal star Bukayo Saka.

Nevertheless, Arsenal remain in talks with Saka, as they do not want him to enter the final year of his deal.

The publication suggests that if Arsenal do not get a deal sorted for Saka, Man City would likely be keen to secure the England international’s signature.

While Saka is said to love Arsenal, he allegedly also wants to treble his £70,000-a-week wages at the Emirates.

The Arsenal boss said: “I am very confident that we as a club and Bukayo, his family, his agent, everybody, we are very much aligned in what we want to achieve.

“And now it is about putting it on a piece of paper.

“I would like that to get done because I don’t want the player or anybody distracted while we are in the middle of the season.

“But those things take time and they have to go through the right process, and I think the process has been really good.”
