Former Arsenal star Paul Merson has weighed in on the debate involving Bukayo Saka and Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.
Arsenal legend Paul Merson has said Bukayo Saka is not yet at the level of Liverpool star Mohamed Salah.
Saka has had a remarkable career so far, amassing 201 competitive appearances for Arsenal and earning 32 caps for England at the young age of 22.
He boasts an impressive record of 46 goals and 52 assists for his club, along with 11 goals and eight assists for the national team.

The statistics highlight the incredible achievements of both players in their respective careers.
Paul Merson picks Salah over Saka
“Everyone tells me that Bukayo Saka is one of the best wingers in the world,” wrote Merson.
“But playing in the same position as Salah, he gets nowhere near his figures. What Salah produces at the highest level is just mind-blowing.
“We talk about Jack Grealish and Phil Foden, who are unbelievable footballers, but they won’t score as many as Salah put together.
“He’s definitely in the top five players in the world for me. He always gets massive goals in massive football matches, and I can’t speak highly enough of him as a player.”
