00:00Yes, Arsenal's star boy and England forward Bukayo Saka made a return to his former primary school, delighting and surprising current pupils with his unannounced visit.
00:16The North London club are now favourites to win the league after widening the gap to title rivals Manchester City and current champions Liverpool as well.
00:30But despite the pressures of elite level football, the England star still found time to make his way down and surprise the students.
00:40Children in year three had prepared a presentation on the player that used to attend their school but didn't know the Premier League star would be front and centre in the audience to watch it himself.
00:56Bukayo Saka has returned to the school a few times and said how special it was to keep coming back and inspire a new generation.
01:05He spoke with children about the importance of positive influences and the lessons he learned while growing up.
01:15Saka also reunited with former teachers who supported him during his early years at school and reflected on how their guidance had helped shape his career, including one of his first ever coaches as well.
01:29Here he is surprising the students, giving words of advice and reminiscing with his former coach.
01:41Hello.
01:45Hello.
01:47How's your presentation going?
01:49Today we are going to talk about Bukayo Saka, that he is our role model and he is our inspiration.
01:55My grassroots coach, Colin, of course, he gave me the opportunity to play in his team when, you know, his team was full.
02:08He gave me the opportunity to have a trial and then obviously he signed me.
02:11So obviously I'm always grateful to him for that and, of course, he gave me the opportunity and after that I went on to get scouted for Arsenal.
02:19So, yeah, I'm forever grateful to him for that, you know.
02:21So, first of all, what do I call you?
02:25B?
02:26King K.O.?
02:27Nah.
02:27Or Starboy?
02:29He's still got it.
02:31Still got it.
02:31Still got it.
02:32There was a season, I think my first season.
02:34First season, you won everything, mate.
02:35I won everything.
02:36Yeah.
02:36Like, player of the season, player of the season.
02:39Do you like Victor Yuccares?
02:41Yes, I like Victor Yuccares.
02:43Do you like him?
02:44Yeah.
02:44Yeah, he's good, man.
02:46He's going to score a lot of goals.
02:46You're not my favourite player.
02:48Good answer.
02:49High five.
02:49Big K.O. Saka is our favourite player and we love him.
