# Liverpool boosted as Saka is still yet to sign Arsenal deal

Bukayo Saka is still yet to sign a new deal with Arsenal, acting as a potential boost to Liverpool.

[According to football.london](https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/arsenal-qa-live-bukayo-saka-17950158?_ga=2.116833871.815215410.1584695072-491563826.1583931493), the Gunners have not made significant progress in persuading the youngster to stay put this summer.

[The Express](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1257957/Arsenal-news-Bukayo-Saka-contract-belief-Liverpool-Man-Utd-transfer-Premier-League) say that Liverpool and Man United are both believed to be interested in securing a deal for Saka, who has impressed this season.

The Englishman has [scored three goals and registered eight assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/367185/Show/Bukayo-Saka) in all competitions.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

Although Saka has predominantly played on the left wing this season, I believe he could be an excellent deputy to Andy Robertson. The 18-year-old is a [capable left-back](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/bukayo-saka/profil/spieler/433177) who could hone his trade under Jurgen Klopp, with his versatility also offering an option in attack.

Saka has everything required to shine at Liverpool, from quality end product to relentless energy. He has averaged [2.3 key passes and 2.2 dribbles](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/367185/Show/Bukayo-Saka) per game in the Europa League this season, outlining his attacking nature, despite often being played in a more defensive role.

Arsenal may be growing nervous at the prospect of losing one of their most prized assets and the Reds could be wise to swoop in.
