Arsenal midfielder Bukayo Saka admits scoring for England in the World Cup has been a dream come true.

Saka is making his mark on the biggest stage, having already scored three times, and has his sights firmly set on France.

Set to earn his 24th cap in Saturday’s quarter-final against the world champions, here is a player who really is living that dream.

Saka said: “I always allow myself to dream. Having watched the tournament as well growing up, I have a lot of memories. I remember South Africa 2010, the famous song (Shakira’s Waka-Waka) — it’s an amazing song.

“Things like that stick with you forever and as a kid, I just woke up after a dream and thought ‘I want to do this for real. I want to score a goal in a World Cup’. Now, of course, we have to believe we can win the World Cup. Right now, our focus is on the next game, France.

“I think it’s about finding the right balance because obviously it’s not just a normal game, it’s a World Cup quarter-final. At the same time, you need to prepare and do the same things the way you normally do so you don’t overthink and get too nervous.

“It has been a great experience so far, to achieve what I have and help my team with the goals I have scored is a really nice feeling”
