Jose Mourinho makes confident claim over Bukayo Saka after England display

Jose Mourinho has waxed lyrical on Arsenal wonderkid Bukayo Saka, labelling him a ‘very talented’ and a ‘very good boy’. The 19-year-old was given a start in England’s final group game against the Czech Republic at Wembley, ahead of the likes of Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford. The Three Lions picked up essential three points last night against Czech Republic as Raheem Sterling scored the winner. And in his first start in the Euros Saka was handed the Start of the Match award. Former Tottenham coach Mourinho has admitted he’s fond of the ‘confident’ Arsenal man. "It’s not about young or old," Mourinho told TalkSPORT before kick-off. "It’s about quality, talent, personality and experience. The guy is young, but has experience at big club and the best league in the world. "I believe he is very talented, very confident, he can play in many positions. Of course people speak about Sancho and Rashford, there are so many good players. But I truly believe in Saka because I think he’s a very good boy." England lead the Group D standings after Tuesday’s win with 7 points and are yet to learn their opponents in the round of 16. Source - Metro Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
