Bukayo Saka names the Arsenal star who 'changed' everyone's world at the Emirates

Bukayo Saka believes that Declan Rice has ‘changed’ the lives of everyone at Arsenal since he arrived at the Emirates back in 2023.

Rice has been one of the best players in Europe this season and has been the key driving force behind the Gunners’ Premier League title win.

The midfielder has played so many minutes this season, but has continued to perform at an incredible level throughout.

Now, Saka has hailed his Arsenal teammate and explained why he has been such an important player at the Emirates Stadium.

Bukayo Saka says Declan Rice changed the lives of everyone at Arsenal

Bukayo Saka believes that Declan Rice has changed the lives of everyone at Arsenal, given how good he has been this season.

Somehow, Rice was not named Premier League Player of the Season, with Bruno Fernandes winning the award ahead of him.

The 27-year-old has performed at a remarkable level this term and, without doubt, has been the best player for Mikel Arteta’s team.

Saka has now spoken about how the midfielder has changed the lives of Arsenal’s players and been the difference maker in their title bid.

When asked to speak about what Rice means, Saka told Men in Blazers: “He changed our world init, man… He changed our world.”

Rice and Saka have both played huge roles in bringing the Premier League title back to N5 for the first time in 22 years.

But there has probably been no bigger player in the title win than Rice, with the midfielder being the driving force behind the success.

No Arsenal outfield player has played more minutes in the Premier League this season than Rice, with 3,099 minutes played.

His levels of consistency have been off the charts this season, and it is a travesty that he did not win the Player of the Season award.
