Bukayo Saka recently became the third-youngest player in Premier League history to achieve 100 wins. This milestone was reached when he helped Arsenal secure a victory over Aston Villa on Saturday. Saka assisted Thomas Partey, making it 2-0 for the Gunners at Villa Park, marking their second win of the season.

In Arsenal's opening game of the season, Saka scored and assisted in their 2-0 win against Wolves. By helping Arsenal start the 2024-25 season with two consecutive wins, he joined an elite group of young players who have reached 100 Premier League victories. Only Wayne Rooney (22 years, 87 days) and Cesc Fabregas (22 years, 180 days) achieved this feat at a younger age than Saka (22 years, 354 days).

Among Arsenal players, only Fabregas and Cliff Bastin (22 years, 171 days) reached this milestone sooner. Reflecting on his accomplishment, Saka shared on social media: "Proud to make it to 100 Premier League wins for my club." This achievement came in his 172nd Premier League appearance.

The record for reaching 100 wins in the fewest matches is held by Phil Foden, who accomplished it in just 127 games. Saka's journey to this milestone highlights his significant contributions to Arsenal's success.

Saka has netted 48 top-flight goals so far in his career. His performance continues to be pivotal for Mikel Arteta's team as they aim for more victories this season.

Arsenal fans and football enthusiasts alike celebrate Saka's remarkable achievement and look forward to more milestones from the young talent.
