Saka, who came through Arsenal’s academy, has become a regular for club and country over the past few years.

Arteta has hailed his development, but he is convinced the 20-year-old can get even better over the next few seasons.

“He has to be a ruthless winner. That’s it. Simple,” he said. “That’s his mentality, that’s what he needs to do.

“He needs to win football matches on his own, he needs to be living this profession: tomorrow I’m going to kill the opponent. And that’s what I want from him.

“He has this ability now he’s going through a place in his career and he needs to go to the next level right now.

“And I think he has the right environment to do it – he has the right people around him to do it and he’s very willing to do it. So that’s what we have to demand.

“One of the most intelligent players I’ve come across. Very well raised and educated. And he loves this football game.

“He has all the qualities and the right people around him to be a success. That’s what we need to work on now.”
