According to a report from The Mirror, Arsenal are set to have a battle on their hands to keep hold of talented left-back Bukayo Saka this summer. The report claims that Saka has caught the eye of Borussia Dortmund, with the left-back excelling under Mikel Arteta in recent months. Arsenal may struggle to keep hold of the teenager, whose current £3,000-a-week contract expires in 2021. 

Arsenal are hoping to secure him to a new deal, with a recent report from The Sun suggesting Arsenal could increase the 18-year-old’s wages to £35,000-a-week. 

 But Dortmund, as well as Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich are now attentive to his potential availability and Arsenal fans will be desperate to hear some good news on Saka’s future going forward. 

The left-back convert has been sensational this season. The 18-year-old has provided nine assists in 29 appearances for the club. In the Europa League in particular, Saka has thrived, with four assists and two goals in six appearances. 

Arsenal fans are well aware of the difficult position they are in regarding Saka. Should the club fail to secure him to a new deal, they would risk losing him for nothing to a German side in 2021. 

So fans on Twitter are clearly hopeful that the Gunners can secure a new contract for the teen sensation.
