VOTE: Who is the best player in the Premier League?
After Bukayo Saka signed a new contract with Arsenal, making him the club's best-paid player, where does he rank among the best in the Premier League?
Saka's previous deal had been due to expire in June 2027, but he has now committed his future to the Gunners until 2031.
But in terms of the best of the best, what about Premier League top goalscorer Erling Haaland? Or is Saka's Arsenal team-mate Declan Rice, the Gunners' most expensive ever signing, worth more?
We've compiled a list of those and others in the mix - but there is an option if you think someone else deserves the top spot too. Let us know!
Diaz: Leaving Liverpool a 'good decision'
Bayern Munich winger Luis Diaz speaking to Sky in Germany about leaving Liverpool:
"When FC Bayern approached me, it was clear from the very first moment that I wanted to go through with this transfer. It filled me with pride because I had known the club for a long time and basically understood what to expect there.
It was a good decision a decision for an incredible and outstanding team. And when you arrive somewhere new, you naturally want to give your very best, to give 100 per cent and to feel comfortable where you are. Being happy is the most important thing for a player and for his family as well. It was exactly the right move to come here.
I knew I would be joining an incredibly strong group of footballers and a club with excellent infrastructure and top-class training facilities. I had no doubts about that. The most difficult part for me and my family certainly was and still is the language but I knew I would fit in very well here and that I would contribute my part to the teams success just as I did previously in Liverpool. FC Bayern placed their trust in me, and I am trying to repay that trust on the pitch."
Man Utd have no intention of negotiating Rashford fee
Manchester United have no intention of re-negotiating a transfer fee for Marcus Rashford with Barcelona, according to the Daily Mail.
As part of the deal Barcelona agreed to pay 26million to make the deal permanent at the end of the season and they are also covering the entirety of Rashfords 315,000-a-week wages, the report states.
However, there have been stories emerging in the Spanish press that have claimed Barcelona are looking to negotiate a lower fee for Rashford.
Saka firmly among Premier League's best
Analysis by Your Site' Nick Wright:
Arsenal spent close to 300m on new signings during the summer transfer window, but securing Bukayo Saka's future might be their most significant piece of business this season.
The 24-year-old academy product has become a talismanic figure for the club. He captains the side in the absence of Martin Odegaard and continues to be crucial to their attack, with Arsenal consistently looking to him to unlock games from their right flank.
No player can claim to have been more influential under Arteta. In addition to making more Premier League appearances than any of his team-mates under the Spaniard, he ranks top for goals, assists, shots and chances created, underlining his all-round threat.
There is no doubting his status among the Premier League's elite. Since the start of the 2021/22 campaign, only Mohamed Salah, Erling Haaland, and Ollie Watkins have contributed more goal involvements.
His groin injury was a significant factor in Arsenal's drop-off last season, but he has reached the halfway point of the new campaign having returned to top form.
The squad is deeper for the summer recruitment, but Saka remains vital, his future at the club assured.
