    Arsenal put up a wall filled with messages of support for Saka after the racist abuse he received following England's loss at Euro 2020. Absolutely top class to see fans get behind a player like that.

    "England forward Bukayo Saka was left "speechless" after Arsenal presented him with hundreds of messages of support following Euro 2020.

    The 19-year-old was subjected to racial abuse, alongside Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho, after missing a penalty in the Euros final last month.

    Arsenal displayed cards, letters and gifts on a wall for Saka on his return to the Gunners' training ground.

    "I'm speechless. How do I even say thank you for all of this?" Saka said.

    "Can I just pick it all up and take it home?"

    One of the messages was from a young fan who said Saka had invited him to play football in the park and "let him win"."
