Rio Ferdinand claims Bukayo Saka not world-class for ONE reason 

Rio Ferdinand has insisted that Arsenal star Bukayo Saka is not a 'world-class' talent, despite his scintillating performances for the north London side.

Speaking on Vibe with FIVE, Ferdinand said: "Not yet. Listen, I think Saka's been unreal. I actually think he needs a bit of a rest, so many games for a young kid. 

"But I think, it's almost like what is world-class? He hasn't done it in the Champions League, has he? I'm talking in the nitty-gritty stages. Saka's top, don't get me wrong. He's not world-class yet."

Against West Ham, Saka scored twice to become the youngest player in more than 40 years to reach 50 goals for Arsenal.
