Pundit claims EPL star Bukayo Saka is the ‘perfect’ Liverpool player

Liverpool have recently been heavily linked with a move for Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka

The 20-year-old sensation has attracted admiration from the Reds and Manchester City with continued fine form. 

Already a key member of Mikel Arteta’s side, Saka has also starred for England at the senior international level. 

Speaking on talkSPORT, Adrian Durham suggested that the talented youngster would be ideally suited to Jurgen Klopp’s side. 

He is made for Liverpool. He’s the perfect Liverpool player. With the energy he’s got, his attitude, everything – I’d love to see him play under Jurgen Klopp in that system. 

This season Saka has scored eight times and registered four assists in 28 appearances across all competitions – earning an impressive 7.02 average Sofascore rating in the process.

Valued at £58.5million and under contract in London until 2024 (Transfermarkt), signing the Englishman would be an expensive outlay for the Anfield club. 

Still, only 20 and already showing signs of becoming an elite performer, adding the versatile forward to the Liverpool ranks would be a no-brainer.   

Possessing an array of key attributes, Klopp would undoubtedly jump at a chance to add Saka to the squad – perhaps as a long-term successor to Mohamed Salah. 

matchday.
