The 18-year-old also admitted that it would be a ‘tough’ decision for him to make because he has represented England at the youth team and his parents are Nigerians.
However, Saka is yet to feature for the English senior team, which makes him still eligible for the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
Speaking on the development, Saka told Sky Sports News: “It’s a tough choice.
“I’m happy to have represented England at youth level, but I’m also proud of my Nigerian heritage from my parents.
“We haven’t been picked by any team, so it’s about staying humble, and when the time comes, we’ll make the decision.”
Saka scored four goals and provided 11 assists in 38 games during his breakthrough season at the Emirates Stadium.
