Man City 'step up interest in Bukayo Saka'

Manchester City have reportedly stepped up their interest in Arsenal attacker Bukayo Saka.

The 20-year-old ended the 2021-22 season as the Gunners' top scorer in all competitions with 12 strikes, 11 of which came in 38 Premier League appearances.

Saka also set up seven goals in the English top flight during another impressive campaign with his boyhood club, who fell short in their attempts to qualify for the Champions League.

Saka remains under contract with Arsenal until the summer of 2024, and Mikel Arteta's side are expected to enter talks over a new contract with the England international soon.

However, there are fears that Saka could decide to end his stint in North London should the club repeatedly fail in their bid to return . . .
