EPL: He’s so dangerous like Messi, Ronaldo – Zinchenko tells referees to protect Arsenal teammate
Arsenal full-back, Oleksandr Zinchenko, has compared teammate Bukayo Saka to Paris Saint-Germain’s Lionel Messi and Al-Nassr’s Cristiano Ronaldo, insisting that the England international is so dangerous.
Zinchenko also called on referees to protect Saka, saying that the forward deserves the same amount of protection from the referees that Messi and Ronaldo receive.
Saka has been quite magnificent for Arsenal so far this season.
The 21-year-old has scored ten goals and has registered eight assists in 31 matches across competitions.
“Bukayo is an unbelievable player, all the full-backs from the other teams know he is so dangerous, so they try to provoke him, tackle him and the referees should know this,” Zinchenko was quoted by the Evening Standard as saying.
“We can speak about Messi, Cristiano, Neymar and players like this. The referees need to protect this kind of player. Apart from Bukayo, we have other front players who are so dangerous and the referees need to be careful, they need to look after them, of course.”
