Arsenal fans were left raving last night as Bukayo Saka starred for the England U19s on his full debut.

The Young Lions were in action against the Czech Republic, as the senior side will be on tonight, and sealed a comfortable 4-1 victory at St. Georges’ Park.

Saka scored twice and assisted for Keith Downing’s side, as Gareth Southgate and his players watched on in support.

It was a highly promising showing from Saka, who was the youngest player in the team aged just 17.

He appears to have a very bright future ahead of him, having made his senior Arsenal debut back in November in the Europa League against Vorskla Poltava.

He then went on to make his Premier League debut in January, replacing Alex Iwobi against Fulham.

The Gunners are battling to finish in the top four and attempting to win the Europa League, so it is unlikely Saka will be making many appearances between now and May, but next season could be his true breakout.
