‘It does feel like, as a fan, he’s one of us and feels a little bit extra special.’
Arsenal are in the Champions League final for the first time in 20 years after they edged out Atlético Madrid 2-1 on aggregate in the semi-final, and it was local lad Bukayo Saka who scored the decisive goal.
Mikel Arteta’s men will learn who they face in the final tonight, when Bayern Munich host PSG in the second leg of the other semi-final.
Whoever they play in Budapest later this month, Arsenal will be looking for more moments of magic from Saka, the academy graduate who has become their star.
