Arsenal attacker Saka makes Prem goalscoring history

Arsenal attacker Bukayo Saka has made Premier League history.

Saka has become the second youngest player to ever score 20 Premier League goals for the club.

Saka was on target on Sunday against Liverpool at the Emirates as he scored a brace and reached that major milestone at the age of 21 years and 34 days.

The winger put together a man-of-the-match performance to lead the Gunners to a 3-2 victory over the Reds.

Only one player has ever been able to net as many times at a younger age for the North Londoners, according to Opta.

And that is Nicolas Anelka who registered 20 Premier League goals by the time he was 20 years and 41 days old.
