Award given by France Football and Peace and Sport for his charity projects with BigShoe in Nigeria, Africa and England.
Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka has won the 2026 Socrates Prize, awarded by France Football and the Peace and Sport association to social and humanitarian commitments, according to L'Équipe.
Saka carries out charity work with the organisation BigShoe, backed by his mother. His projects focus on Nigeria, the country of his family roots, though they also reach other parts of Africa and England.
In his words, being able to improve or transform lives, even from a distance, is something incomparable.
