Bukayo Saka was cheered on by girlfriend Tolami Benson as the Arsenal star provided a match-winning assist in England’s 1-0 victory over Serbia at Euro 2024 on Sunday.
Saka’s pinpoint cross that was headed home by Jude Bellingham means that the Gunners forward has now provided 27 goal contributions in 24 starts for his country.
Talking of numbers, Benson was seen wearing the no.87 on her back and chest in the stands at Gelsenkirchen’s Veltins-Arena.
No.87 was Saka’s first squad number at Arsenal.
