Arsenal were unable to sign a high-profile winger in the summer transfer window, despite the clear need to strengthen in the wide areas. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have a lot of pressure to perform until the next opportunity to address this area of the pitch opens.
However, Marquinhos' impressive performance against FC Zurich reminded Mikel Arteta that signing another winger may not have been necessary. Arsenal’s new young star Marquinhos had a standout performance as he scored and assisted on his debut.
It seems that Arteta will not be the only person to benefit for Marquinhos’ start to life with the Gunners, as Gabriel Jesus could also reap the success of the Brazilian’s potential as an Arsenal player. That's according to former Arsenal striker Kevin Campbell.
