Last Friday was the sixth anniversary of Bukayo Saka’s Arsenal first-team debut and, based on his current trajectory, he could easily go on to threaten some all-time Premier League records.
Not many would have foreseen the impact that Bukayo Saka has had at Arsenal when he made his debut for the club as a 17-year-old in their UEFA Europa League win over Vorskla Poltava on 29 November 2018.
Now, six years on, there’s a solid case behind Saka’s potential to challenge the Premier League record books over the next decade.
While Arsenal have had some underwhelming performances so far this season and find themselves nine points off leaders Liverpool already, the same cannot be said for Saka.
The 23-year-old has arguably found an even higher gear this campaign, becoming even more integral to the Gunners following the early-season injury to the influential Martin Odegaard.
With the Norwegian now back in action, Arsenal's Matchweek 12 Premier League win over Nottingham Forest and the 5-1 UEFA Champions League victory at Sporting CP in midweek saw Odegaard and Saka team up to terrorise the opposition defence.
With Odegaard back alongside him, Saka was freed up from as much focused opposition attention.
In the Forest match, Saka attempted six shots himself and created four more for team-mates. It was the eighth time since the start of last season he’s managed to reach double figures for shot involvements in a single Premier League appearance (four this season, four last season). That’s more often than any other player in the competition.
With Odegaard only playing 425 minutes of Premier League action in 2024/25 so far, a lot of the responsibility for Arsenal’s attacking threat has been pushed in Saka’s direction.
