£70m player Mikel Arteta wants to sign says he’s always been an Arsenal fan

A number of players in world football have admitted to being boyhood Arsenal fans.

Pedro Neto has admitted that he supported Arsenal as a youngster, while Tammy Abraham is another famous player who supported Arsenal as a kid.

Speaking to The Athletic, Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo has made a similar admission.

Bournemouth face Arsenal on Saturday evening, and Semenyo will be heading into this game with some mixed feelings

The winger says that he did grow up as an Arsenal supporter, but he doesn’t carry that emotion into games when he faces Arsenal and he actually relishes the opportunity to play against the top teams.

Interestingly, this comes just weeks after Semenyo was linked with a move to Arsenal.
