Arsenal and England star Bukayo Saka has stated that he had never heard of global music legend Celine Dion.

The conversation took place during a relaxed sit-down with Grammy-winning singer Tems on Arsenal Football Club's new show, The Link Up.

Saka asked Tems about her early music influences and idols. When she mentioned Celine Dion, Saka responded with genuine surprise: “I don’t know who that is,” he said, laughing.

Tems, visibly shocked and amused, replied, “You don’t know who Celine Dion is? Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh.”

24-year-old Saka, known for his humble and focused demeanour on the field, likely hasn't been exposed to Dion's music, which dominated the charts in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Celine Dion, the Canadian superstar behind hits like “My Heart Will Go On” and “Because You Loved Me,” has sold over 200 million records worldwide, making her one of the best-selling artists of all time.
