BUKAYO SAKA is surprisingly the second lowest paid player in Arsenal's first team, according to reports.
The wonderkid has just over a year remaining on his current £30,000-a-week deal, although the Gunners possess an option to extend it by a further 12 months.
Arsenal have reportedly opened talks with Saka's representatives regarding a new deal that would reflect the 20-year-old's importance to Mikel Arteta's team.
Of the Gunners' first-team squad, only Nuno Tavares earns less than Saka.
According to figures, the Portuguese left-back pockets £27k-a-week.
Emile Smith Rowe's new deal last year took him above Saka onto £40k-a-week - the same as Rob Holding and £5k less than Eddie Nketiah.
