Reports from The Sun indicate that Saka carefully planned the moment at an exclusive London hotel, setting the stage for a memorable occasion.
A source close to the pair shared how stunning the moment was, saying,
“Bukayo went all out for the proposal, and the ring he chose is absolutely enormous. He’d organised a special night at a top London hotel and proposed there. It was incredibly special, and Tolami was totally blown away.”
Tolami became known to many football fans during the 2022 World Cup in Doha, where she was spotted cheering Saka on from the stands alongside other partners of England players.

According to StatMuse, Saka has a decent record against the Blues, scoring two goals and three assists in 11 league appearances.
