Oleksandr Zinchenko has described Kieran Tierney as an "amazing player" and believes the two can push each other for a place in the Arsenal starting XI.
Zinchenko, 25, completed a £32million transfer from Manchester City to the Gunners earlier this summer and will provide competition for places. Tierney, also 25, was Arsenal's primary left-back last season but has been restricted to two substitute outings this term.
Tierney is still recovering from a long-term knee injury and Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will have a selection dilemma when the Scotland international and Zinchenko are fully fit. The latter can be deployed in midfield, which would allow Arteta to field both players in the starting line-up.
