William Saliba is set for a defining campaign at Arsenal this season, and the defender is seeming keen to impress amid high expectations. The 21-year-old proved himself to be one of Europe's brightest prospects while out on loan at Marseille and, now having returned to north London, he's been putting in the work ahead of pre-season.
With Mikel Arteta set to rally his troops and welcome the Gunners back to London Colney shortly, the France international has been filmed being put threw his paces. Saliba, whose contract at the Emirates Stadium expires in 2024, will be keen to repay the Spaniard's faith ahead of what is poised to redemption arc after Arsenal saw Champions League qualification slip through their fingers.
The Frenchman featured 36 times in LIgue 1 for the Olympians, steering Jorge Sampaoli's side to a silver medal finish behind Paris Saint-Germain. And, having played a key role in Marseille's success, Saliba suggested that he was keen to stay at Stade Vélodrome in May in order to play top-flight European football next season.
