Talented Nigerian winger Bukayo Saka was called up to train with Arsenal's first team ahead of their trip to the Ukrainian capital, Kiev where they face Vorskla Poltava in the Europa League.

The 2001-born player was photographed on Wednesday morning vying for the ball with Carl Jenkinson in the team's final training session on English soil before Thursday's game week five fixture.

Saka has every reason to celebrate his achievements for club and country since the start of this season.

Two months ago, he earned his first England U18 cap and penned his first professional contract with the North London club.

Saka netted on his debut for England U19s in their 4-0 rout of Moldova in a UEFA EURO U19 Championship qualifier two weeks ago.

He has been involved in all the matches played by Arsenal in the Premier League 2 this term, eleven in total, most recently against Derby County.
