Criticized during his debut at Arsenal, so much so that he made several loans including one conclusive with Olympique de Marseille, William Saliba is now unanimous at the vice-champion of England. His grandiose performances achieved during the previous year (33 games played including 32 starts for 3 goals and 1 decisive pass TCC) testify to a constant evolution, both physically and mentally. His absence due to a back injury contracted on March 16 also weighed heavily in the balance when the Gunners were neck and neck with the Citizens to win the Premier League title. Now looking to the future, the French defender sees things big for the coming season. After taking stock of his time in the south of France, the 29-year-old did not hide, in the columns of the DailyMailhis ambition to rub shoulders with the caste of the best defenders in the world, if not to become so!
“I wasn’t surprised I came out on top because I knew I had a good time on loan, I knew I was ready, I was just waiting for my chance. I look forward to the future with this club. The future will be good for everyone, I hope. It won’t be easy but we will work hard for it and I know the club will be back to the very, very high. We must do everything to win the possible titles… Become the best? You have to work hard to get to that level. I am therefore not close to this level but I will give everything to perhaps one day become the best defender in the world.said the native of Bondy, who recently extended the adventure with Arsenal until June 2027.
