Arsenal's star, Bukayo Saka, has set his sights on one of football's most prestigious individual accolades—the Ballon d'Or.
However, the 23-year-old winger remains firmly focused on team success and personal growth as he continues to make waves in the footballing world.
Speaking about his ambitions, Saka shared, "The Ballon d’Or is a dream, but my focus is on winning titles at Arsenal. I’m just working hard to do the best for my team. Any individual awards that come of it, I'll accept it."
After a challenging three-month injury layoff, Saka returned to action just in time to boost Arsenal's Premier League and Champions League campaigns. Reflecting on his time away from the pitch, he said, "It was tough for me, it came at a bad moment, but I'm just focused now on the positives. I couldn't ask to come back at a better time of the season than now." His resilience and timing have injected fresh energy into Mikel Arteta's side, with Saka quickly rediscovering his form.
Saka's humility and dedication to his team are evident in his words. Despite his meteoric rise and comparisons to global stars like Kylian Mbappé and VinÃcius Júnior, he remains grounded. "I need my teammates as much as they need me,"he emphasized, showcasing his belief in the power of collective effort.
Since breaking into Arsenal's first team in 2018, Saka has established himself as a key player for both club and country. His influence extends beyond the goals and assists—he embodies the hard work and determination that inspire his teammates and fans alike.
As Arsenal gears up for a crucial Champions League quarterfinal against Real Madrid, Saka’s ambitions serve as a testament to his hunger for success. While the dream of winning the Ballon d'Or remains a long-term goal, his immediate focus is clear: achieving greatness with Arsenal and continuing to grow as a player.
