Arsenal executive vice-chair Tim Lewis has given an insight into the talk between Arsene Wenger and Bukayo Saka when they first met.

Wenger had been away from the club for the best part of four years after his 22-year reign as manager came to an end.

When he did return to the Emirates Stadium, he had a chance to connect with Saka and the club's other young stars.

"It was great to take Arsene down to the dressing room,' Lewis told The Telegraph.

"Bukayo [Saka] didn't know him but he called him 'boss' immediately.

He said, 'Boss, how can I improve?' [and] Arsene very dryly said, 'I think you could use your right foot a bit more'."
