Nwaneri: Marseille is one of the biggest clubs in Europe

  /  CharlesWang

Ethan Nwaneri has spoken for the first time since moving to Marseille on loan. 

The Arsenal teenager arrived in the south of France yesterday to complete a loan until the end of the season, amid a struggle to make the Gunners matchday squad in recent weeks. 

"It's one of the biggest clubs in Europe, and I'm ready to help the team," Nwaneri told reporters outside Marseille Airport.

"He [De Zerbi] is one of the best coaches in the world, he's demanding. And I'm ready to play under him and listen to what he wants from the team."

Asked about Nwaneri after Marseille's 3-0 loss to Liverpool, Marseille boss Roberto De Zerbi said: "He's a very good player, he's important for us because we are playing many games in a row. 

"We need new energy, fresh energy and fresh players."
