Emile Smith Rowe has lauded the maturity of Arsenal teammate Bukayo Saka.

The two Englishman came through the Arsenal academy together and are now fully fledged stars for the club.

Saka was the victim of racist abuse following England's penalty shootout loss to Italy in the Euro2020 final.

Asked about Saka, Smith Rowe told the Daily Mail: "I've grown up with him, I've known him for a long time.

"So for him to come through it, it's no surprise to see how strong he is.

"At such a young age, his maturity is ridiculous. I'm happy for him and long may it continue."
