ABOUT BUKAYO SAKA

World Cup pedigree

Bukayo Saka started for England at WC2022 — he scored against Iran and was one of England's most-used attackers. His Euro 2020 final penalty miss against Italy remains a defining early-career moment that he has since processed and moved past.

Role for England

Arsenal's right-winger and England's primary wide attacker. He is left-footed, hugs the right touchline, and cuts inside on his preferred foot for shots and through-balls. Tuchel's system asks him to combine more with the right-back than he did under Southgate.

WC2026 outlook

Outside top-10 Golden Boot (around 26-31/1) but a strong assist contender. His value depends on Arsenal-style team play translating to the international setup. Watch for his prop markets in games where England face teams that defend deep.
