Arsenal goalkeeper Ramsdale assures fans over Saka contract

Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has provided a positive update on Bukayo Saka's contract situation.

The winger is likely to renew his deal with the Premier League leaders in the coming weeks.

Saka, who scored in a 4-0 win over Everton on Wednesday, has ten Premier League goals this term.

"I think if he had one week left I wouldn't be worried about him being here," Ramsdale told reporters post-game.

"If he had until the end of the season I would still see him here on the first day of pre-season.

"I'm fairly relaxed with Bukayo, let him crack on with his team and the club sort it out and then we move forward. It is obviously not affecting him, that is why he is not rushing into anything and when it does settle, we know we have him for longer than we do at the minute.

"It will be a boost to the club but as I said he has still got 18 months, two and a half years on his contract anyway, so I think it will be more of a boost for him, knowing the club have a lot of faith in him. Bukayo is an Arsenal player and will be for a long time."
