Football defender, William Saliba will walk back into Arsenal’s team next season, Stephy Mavididi has said. He recently revealed this while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he believes this will be the case because the £27 million ($37m) defender is in the same class as Marquinhos and Thiago Silva.
He added that Saliba is one of the toughest defenders he has faced in his career, and he has what it takes to start for the Gunners.
His words, “That guy’s a player.”
“He’s hands down one of the best defenders in the league, hands down.”
“I think he’ll walk back into the Arsenal team next season. When I played against him last year I thought: ‘How is this guy not playing at Arsenal?’.”
“He’s strong, good on the ball, he reads the game well. Sometimes you walk off the pitch and think – fair play man, respect.”
“The defender has kept up with you, out tussled you, out quitted you, you have to say fair play, this guy’s a good player.”
“He’s one of the best centre-backs I’ve faced. Everyone can talk about Marquinhos, Thiago Silva, Jerome Boateng, but he’s up there.”
“He’s the one that surprised me the most. I’m an Arsenal fan too and playing against Saliba I thought, we’ve got a very decent defender here!”
