Saka And Raya join Thierry Henry after reaching the Final 

Considered one of the best wingers in the world, Saka is a skilled dribbler, creative player and prolific goalscorer. Predominantly a right winger, Saka uses his pace, dribbling ability, and strength to beat defenders. Naturally left-footed, he is known for cutting inside to score long-range, curled efforts, or delivering crosses. His proficiency with his right foot also makes him a threat on the byline.

Despite primarily playing on the right, Saka has demonstrated versatility, featuring as a left winger, left wing-back, and even left-back throughout his Arsenal and England career. He has drawn comparisons to Arjen Robben, with former Premier League defender Glen Johnson highlighting his pace, goal threat, and work rate.
