Bukayo Saka talked about Arsenal's ambition for titles as well as touching on his love for the club in a recent interview with CNN Sports.

Saka has led the charge for Arsenal's title contention in the last few years, constantly delivering when it matters most against the best teams in not just the league, but also the rest of Europe.

Saka may not have the most goals and assists in the world, but he makes sure that when Arsenal need him to perform, he is usually their best and most creative attacker.

Even in draws and losses, Saka has always been the one who wants to make things happen and quietly force a win for the Gunners, and that has always stuck with Arsenal fans.

Now, he has renewed his contract with Arsenal through 2031, and it is the best possible news that fans could have received.

In the interview, he talks about his love for Arsenal, as well as his ambition with the club to achieve a lot more than they have so far.

He said: "The club is going in the right direction, for sure. We have an amazing team and we’re back fighting for every trophy, so no place I’d rather be. To be playing at the highest level, to be playing for Arsenal, this is everything I want.”

It makes everything easier when fans hear that last line. It makes the growing pains feel a bit smoother. It feels the small failures - or, as many people call it, steps to success - feel that much easier to bare when the team has such a lovable figure leading the pack.

Arsenal's best player may not be Saka at the moment, but it is clear that, after everything he has done for the club and how the club has supported him through so many difficult periods, this is the best news for all parties involved.

Saka loves Arsenal, and this is where he wants to be, which is the most important thing about all of this.

There are so many clubs in world football that would take Saka on their team in a heartbeat. It is not just his attacking output. He also provides so much defensively, and he would be beneficial to countless teams in Europe.

However, Saka chooses to be in North London, at least until 2031, and that really shows just how much he loves the club and appreciates what he has worked so hard for.
