Arsenal fans have noticed a big change in physicality after a picture of Miguel Azeez emerged from training yesterday.
Growing in stature
Azeez has been tipped to have a hugely bright future at Arsenal, after coming through their youth system.
The 18-year-old was regularly seen in first-team training last term, although his chances in Arsenal’s line-up were fleeting.
Azeez has now been training with Arsenal over pre-season, though.
And Arsenal fans think that he has been working hard to get stronger over pre-season.
Arsenal reaction
If Azeez can start competing with Arsenal’s more senior players physically, there is no reason why this couldn’t be a breakthrough season for him.
Azeez has all the technical ability required to earn a spot in Arteta’s starting line-up, and he could be a very appealing option for the Gunners to use regularly.
Arteta has already shown a willingness to use youngsters, with the likes of Emile Smith Rowe breaking through under him.
If Azeez was to prove his worth in Arsenal’s first-team it could be a major boost for the Gunners and save them a considerable amount of money, as they have spent much of the summer so far chasing a new midfielder.
