Despite our 3-0 loss to Arsenal, I still want to give credit where it’s due. He is truly the backbone of this Arsenal team, and I would be thrilled to play alongside him someday. Vinicius Jr. has revealed the one Arsenal player he hopes to team up with before his European career ends—Saka, not Timber. After his outstanding performance last night, everyone wants to play with him.

“Despite a 3-0 Loss, He Deserves All the Praise!” – Vinicius Jr. Reveals the Arsenal Star He Dreams of Playing With (Not Timber!)

Even after Real Madrid’s crushing 3-0 defeat to Arsenal, Vinicius Jr. displayed true sportsmanship and humility. In his post-match press conference, he took a moment to recognize one Arsenal star who dominated the game.

“Even though we lost 3-0, I have to give credit where it’s due,” Vinicius said. “He’s the backbone of this Arsenal team, and honestly, I’d love the chance to play alongside him one day.”

Who was he referring to?

Not Timber. Not Ødegaard. Not Gabriel Jesus.

It was Bukayo Saka.

The young winger once again lit up the European stage with his blistering speed, smooth dribbling, and seamless link-up play. Saka tormented Madrid’s defense, delivering a masterclass from start to finish.

Vinicius went on:

“His movement, his awareness, his energy—it’s on another level. I’ve played against some of the best in Europe, but Saka is different. Before my time in Europe ends, I’d love to be his teammate.”

And he’s not the only one.

Sources suggest several world-class players privately admire Saka’s rapid rise. His consistency, mentality, and ability to perform under pressure have made him one of the most coveted players in the game.

From Hale End to the admiration of football’s biggest stars, Bukayo Saka isn’t just making waves—he’s taking over.

Everyone wants to play with him now.
