Arsenal have qualified for the final of the Champions League for the first time in two decades.

The Gunners have had an incredible season in Europe. They haven’t lost a single game yet and got over the line against Atletico Madrid in the semi-finals.

Arsenal’s focus now will return to the Premier League, but we’re sure every player will be dreaming about the Champions League final in Budapest.

Bukayo Saka is one of those who is ready, and he seems to have a preferred opponent too – even though he won’t openly say it.

Bukayo Saka issues cryptic response when asked who he wants Arsenal to face in the Champions League final

Arsenal already know that it will either be Paris Saint-Germain or Bayern Munich in the Champions League final.

The French giants have a 5-4 lead from the first leg, and the return fixture on Wednesday night promises to be just as exciting.

Arsenal players can just sit back and relax, but they must all be secretly rooting for one team.

Saka, who scored the winner in the semi-final, has a preference, but he’s too media-trained to let it out.

He told Micah Richards on CBS Sports: “Come on, man. You can’t ask me that. You know I’m going to have to give a media-trained answer to that question.

“You know deep down who we want to face; that’s what I’ll say. I’ll leave it there.”

Bukayo Saka may secretly want to face PSG

PSG and Bayern have both caused heartbreak for Arsenal over the years.

The Germans were a pain to the Gunners for a few years when Arsene Wenger was still at the club.

Last season, PSG knocked Arsenal out of the semi-final over two legs, where Arsenal were arguably better on both occasions.

That is why Saka’s comments make us believe that he wants PSG to reach the final – just so he and his teammates can get revenge.

However, irrespective of who gets there, Arsenal shouldn’t need any extra motivation to win the biggest game in club football.
