According to the former football manager, the Welsh international has the experience and ambition to contribute something positive for Nice this season.
“I know Aaron well, he’s a player who will contribute,” Wenger said as per Nice’s website. “He had a few injuries in Italy. He needs time to get back to his best, physically. He’s creative, a finisher.”
“He has the timing to be in the box at the right time. He also has a sort of self-confidence that can help the team grow. He’s played a huge amount of big games, I think he can also contribute a lot to the team thanks to his experience and ambition.”..TAP..TO.CONTINUE READING.
