Kevin De Bruyne was the best player in the league for many years, but with age catching up with him and his influence waning due to multiple injuries, it's time to have another top star.

Aina names PL’s best player

Speaking on Filthy Fellas Podcast via Daily Mail, Aina has named Arsenal and England winger Bukayo Saka as the best player in the English league, heating up the conversations on social media.

Saka has been one of Arsenal and England’s best players for many years, but his lack of trophies at the Emirates Stadium has made some fans water down his impact.

Despite advancing in age, Salah has maintained his fitness level and performance. As noted by PL stats, he is the first player to hit double digits in goals and assists before Christmas, with 15 goals and 11 assists.

Other players who have been pushed as the face of the league are the Player and Young Player of the Year last season, Manchester City academy stars Phil Foden and Cole Palmer.
