Bukayo Saka has been the talk of the town all season.
He once again put on an impressive display for England in the semi-final win over Denmark.
Saka was instrumental in equalizing for The Three Lions before getting substituted in the hour mark.
“England conceded their first goal of this competition and needed to show character to get back into the game,” Keown told the Daily Mail.
“That courage came from their youngest player in 19-year-old Bukayo Saka, and it justified Gareth Southgate’s selection of him over his competition for that right-sided position. Saka loves to run at his opponents.
“He will not be denied when he doesn’t want to be. Shortly before England’s equaliser, he burst down the right wing and played a pass into Harry Kane, who fed Raheem Sterling.
“That shot was saved by Kasper Schmeichel. But then, moments later, Kane found Saka with a lovely ball in behind.
“The Arsenal youngster had made a very smart and well-timed run and he then played the pass which led to an own goal by Simon Kjaer. England were back in it.”
Saka could make another start for England in the final against Italy down the right flank. He certainly deserves based on his recent performances.
