Arsenal Star Saka Earns Leo Messi Comparison From Jude Bellingham After Super-Sub Performance

In England’s 3-3 tie with Germany, Arsenal star Bukayo Saka came off the bench to create multiple chances and lead the way for England.

Gareth Southgate introduced Mount and Saka just shortly after the hour mark. He then inspired a remarkable turnaround from the Three Lions that saw them score three times in the space of 12 minutes.

Germany struggled to contain Saka’s direct running, as he teed up Mason Mount for England’s second. Jude Bellingham has now likened the 21-year-old’s creative qualities to those of the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner.

Saka commended the England fans at Wembley on Monday in a social media post. Jude Bellingham then took to the post and commented “Leo,” likening Saka to the PSG player.

The Borussia Dortmund midfielder Bellingham was however, not the only one to praise Saka. Aaron Ramsdale, Jack Grealish, and Reece James were among the other players to praise the youngster’s brilliant performance against Germany.
Meanwhile, Saka had previously lauded Messi as a player he would like to play with. It therefore comes as no surprise that his teammates see a bit of the Argentine in his gameplay.

The 2022–23 UEFA Nations League campaign for England is officially over with the country relegated from the A section.
However, Saka will turn his attention to domestic action with Arsenal as they get ready for their derby match against Tottenham on Saturday.
