Bukayo Saka might just be the nicest man in football, he recently met David Beckham at the England camp and his greeting is sure to put a smile on your face.
The Arsenal man has been in fine form for both his club and country. In the World Cup so far he has already scored three goals and has been one of England’s best players.
The 21-year-old has already got 10 goal contributions in the Premier League this season and it’s no surprise to see just how good he has been for England so far.
Next up for Gareth Southgate’s side will be a tough test against France in the quarter-finals, but Saka believes that England will be full of confidence heading into the clash.
“If you look at our first four games, we had three clean sheets,” he explained via PA Media. “That shows how solid we are at the back and we have scored the most goals as well.
“I feel we have just got to prepare the best gameplan and go there with confidence. We are playing really good right now.
“There is no doubt about the quality we have in our team. We are blessed with an amazing front line. There is so much quality attacking players.
“When you are selected, it shows how much confidence the boss has in you so that gives you that extra confidence to go out and shine. Last night we were able to do that.”
The Arsenal man claims that he has learnt a lot since his Euro 2020 experience when England were defeated on penalties by Italy at Wembley.
“Obviously, I have matured and progressed a lot since that moment. I wouldn’t have stepped up the number of times I have for Arsenal if I was not confident.
“If the moment comes and I am selected to take it, I will be more than happy to.”
Some of the world’s biggest stars will all be on the pitch together when England meets France on Saturday evening. Speaking of big-name stars, one of them recently dropped by at the England camp.
Beckham who is an ambassador of Qatar recently met up with the England camp and Saka couldn’t wait to jump at the chance to ask for a photo with his hero.
