The North Londoners' star boy then capped a positive week with a goal against Wolves after just five minutes, stooping to head in from Declan Rice's cross.

Saka celebrated in style, miming a signature to the travelling Gunners faithful.

It was a welcome goal that could springboard Arsenal's title push ahead of the run-in and for Saka, the header ended a 15-match goalless streak - the longest in his career so far.

Bukayo Saka gives Arsenal the lead against Wolves with his first goal since 3 December, ending a 15-game goal drought. The England international was unmarked as he headed home Declan Rice's cross. New contract, new central role, new lease of life for Saka?
