Following a rich vein of form that has seen him emerged as one of the brightest youngsters in Europe, Bukayo Saka has been begged by his former teammate and Norwich City midfielder, Charlie Gilmour to pen a contract extension with the Gunners.

Saka’s current contract will expire in 2021 and the North London club are desperate to tie him down to a new deal with European champions Liverpool, Manchester United and Leicester City all rumored to be interested in the versatile winger.

Saka posted a picture of himself on the social media dressed in Arsenal kit with the caption: “kid with a dream”

Gilmour, who only left Arsenal for Norwich City last summer responded with a comment “sign that fam”.

Recall that Arsenal has not been able to tie Saka to fresh terms since he signed his first professional contract, understood to be worth around £7,000-a-week, now, the Gunners stand the risk of losing him for free if he does not sign a new deal.
