Recall that Ivory Coast international was signed by Arsenal from Ligue 1 side Lille during the summer transfer window in a club-record $89m deal.

And the 24-year-old winger has already proved to be a real handful in his early appearances for the Gunners, averaging 3.8 dribbles per game, more than any other attacker in the English top flight.

He also became the first player in 50 Premier League matches to dribble past Virgil van Dijk when he skipped past the Liverpool centre-back during his full debut at Anfield.

Kanu who once played for Arsenal has this to say of the player...

"He’s a good player," the Nigeria Legend told Goal.

"He’s got fast feet and I think he can unlock teams. He can score and he can assist.

"The league here is totally different from every other league so it takes time for somebody coming in to perform the way they have for their other clubs.

"But I think he will do well for us because now he is gettingmore game time and I believe he will complement the other two strikers."
