Mikel Arteta believes Eddie Nketiah "represents what we are all about" after signing a new long-term Arsenal deal.
The forward was due to see his contract expire this summer, which left him free to seek pastures new, but the player has performed a U-turn and committed his future to the north London club. Nketiah, who has been forced to play second fiddle in recent seasons, was Arteta's main man in the final weeks of the season.
Arsenal made Nketiah the central point of their attack and the 23-year-old showed his quality, scoring five times. That included a brace against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge as well as strikes against Leeds United and Everton. Arteta has been vocal in his admiration of the striker and doubled down on that after he penned a new deal.
