Saliba believes he needs to do one thing to be considered best in the world

Arsenal’s William Saliba believes he is currently one of the best defenders in the world but admitted he needs to do one thing in order to become the best.

Saliba has established himself as one of the best defenders in the Premier League over the last couple of seasons and has formed a formidable partnership with Brazil international Gabriel Magalhaes.
