Granite Xhaka on Mikel Arteta's Tricks
According to The Sun: Granite Xhaka shared his impressions of how Mikel Arteta surprised him with a simple trick involving a chair on his first day at Arsenal. The 33-year-old Sunderland captain endured seven tough seasons at the Gunners before moving to Bayer in 2023. Xhaka, who signed and began playing under Arsene Wenger, later went through difficult times and almost left the club in North London.
“Mikel made a huge impression on me from the very beginning. He showed how important it is to be a part of the team and support one another,” Xhaka noted.
This experience left a deep mark in the athlete's life and reflects his journey at Arsenal. Arteta's trick turned out to be a symbol of the team spirit, which plays a crucial role in shared achievements. Remembering this moment, Xhaka emphasizes how important it is to support each other in football.
