Bukayo Saka’s first big purchase after signing lucrative Arsenal contract
Saka signed a new long-term contract at Arsenal in May 2023.
The England international committed his future to the club until 2027, and it was a huge boost for everyone in and around the Emirates.
Mikel Arteta and Edu Gaspar recognised the attacker’s importance to the club and awarded him a very good contract to keep him happy.
Saka earns £195,000-a-week at Arsenal, which makes him the sixth-best-paid player at the club.
The Evening Standard have now revealed one of the first things Saka bought right after he signed his big deal – a new house for his parents.
That proves that Saka is a real class act, and his humbleness on and off the pitch is further evidence that money has not changed him one bit.

How Saka is helping Arsenal’s young players
It has been several years since Saka left Hale End, but he remains an inspiration to everyone there.
The report reveals that despite being one of the biggest names in English football now, Saka has not forgotten his roots.
He often visits Hale End to speak to the younger players there, and his journey is proof that everyone in the academy can make it too.
One of Saka’s Arsenal shirts even hangs on the wall. Below it is a message from the man himself, saying: “Work hard and enjoy the journey!”
That is something every young player at Hale End should read every day and believe that they too can become a star like Saka one day.
