His statistics reflect his significant impact on the team's attacking performance; he is not just a goalscorer, but a top-class playmaker, making him one of the most complete players in the world.
Local and international impact of the decision
Domestically, this contract guarantees that one of England's best talents will remain in the Premier League, enhancing the strength and appeal of the competition. Internationally, Saka is a key player for England, and his stability at his club will positively impact his performances for the Three Lions in upcoming international tournaments. His continued stay at Arsenal closes the door on any attempts by other European clubs to sign him and confirms that the London club has once again become a destination of choice for stars, not just a stepping stone in their careers.
