Bukayo Saka became Arsenal’s highest paid player with his new contract this week (Getty)Declan Rice should force a move away from Arsenal this summer if he is not offered a new contract like Bukayo Saka, according to talkSPORT host Adrian Durham. Saka signed a new deal with Arsenal this week to become the club’s highest paid player on wages in excess of £300,000 a week. And yet, he’s just heard that news that Saka has become the highest paid player at the football club. So, I see giving Saka a fat, new contract as an insult to Declan Rice. ‘If I was Declan Rice I would feel insulted that I’m not the highest paid player at the football club.
