He pipped the likes of Erling Haaland, Moises Caicedo and Gabriel Martinelli to the prize following an outstanding 2022-23 campaign, which saw him score 14 goals and provide 11 assists in 38 Premier League appearances.

After receiving his award, Saka was shown a series of clips whereby Arsenal fans were asked if they would rather win the Premier League and sell him or forfeit the title and keep him at the Emirates Stadium.

A number of supporters admitted they would rather keep the winger than win the title, leaving Saka stunned.

In the video, posted on social media by GOAL, one person said: "Never! That’s not worth it. That’s our star boy, that’s like your son."
