YouTube star reveals Bukayo Saka Arsenal demand amid Chelsea's Mason Mount example

A certain YouTube star has revealed a shock Bukayo Saka Arsenal demand as the Gunners No.7 hopes to copy Chelsea's Mason Mount in a certain aspect.

Over the last couple of seasons, football celebrations have become a big talking point on the internet and on social media. Whether it's Mario Balotelli's 'Why Always Me' shirt reveal or Wayne Rooney's knockout boxing blow, footballers nowadays have become creative with how they celebrate goals.

In this decade more specifically, you still have Cristiano Ronaldo's infamous 'Siuuu' celebration or Son Heung-min's camera one but the reality is, nearly every football now has a unique way of creating its own headlines.

Surprisingly though, most modern-day players are turning to YouTube influencers for new celebration ideas and this is exactly what Mount has done. Upon meeting YouTube sensation Chunkz, he already had an idea about what he was to witness: 'the Frankenstein.'

But the YouTube star himself was shocked to see the Cobham graduate actually optimise the idea when he next scored after that meet-up that was conducted between the pair.

The first time the 'Frankenstein' celebration was used came in the last game before football stopped due to Covid-19. Frank Lampard's Chelsea demolished Carlo Ancelotti's Everton by a four-goal margin and the 23-year-old's celebration did the rounds on social media.

Whilst reflecting on the whole experience of seeing his creation used in front of millions of people watching on from Stamford Bridge, home and around the world, Chunkz said that Mount is searching for a new way to crown his goals.

He told LADbibleTV: "He [Mount] got killed on Twitter for it because people were like, 'what the hell is this rubbish celebration?'

"And I was like, 'It's me, it's my celebration.' But yeah after I told him to do it, I watched the next two Chelsea games and then I didn't because I was asleep one day and my phone was like, going crazy, because I think this was a Saturday 12pm kick-off.

"I was asleep and then everyone was calling me, messaging me saying: 'Yo yo, Mason did it, Mason did it'. I then said 'what are you talking about?'

"So then I watched it on Twitter and I saw him do that and I was just, I was literally shocked, because I didn't believe he was gonna remember. So, I just kept rewinding and I was like, 'You know, that's actually my celebration.'

"Mason keeps asking us for a new one, so I need to give him one too. He's tired of the Frankenstein. They keep taking the p*** out of him in training and stuff, saying, 'you keep doing the same celebration so."

Chunkz then went on to clarify that it isn't just Mount but Gunners star Saka and others who are making demands for a celebration.

"Wild, I get footballers from the whole Premier League just asking me, 'Give me a celebration," he revealed later in the same interview. "Bukayo Saka's waiting for one, Trent Alexander-Arnold is waiting for one but I need it to be original."
