Arteta Says Super Eagles-Eligible Ethan Nwaneri Returned From Marseille Loan More Mature
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says Ethan Nwaneri has returned from his Marseille loan spell more mature, despite limited playing time in France. Nwaneri joined Marseille in January after struggling for regular opportunities at Arsenal. His prospects reportedly changed after Roberto De Zerbi, who approved the move, left the club. The Super Eagles-eligible midfielder started Arsenal's 4-1 pre-season win over Girona and played for just over an hour. Arteta believes the difficult loan experience could help Nwaneri as he fights for a place in Arsenal's first team. Nwaneri remains eligible to represent Nigeria, keeping him on the radar of the Nigeria Football Federation.
