‘’We can’t forget that this is his first full season in the first team,” Okocha told Sky Sports. “And Arsenal have all their players back now. There’s a lot of competition, so it’s not easy.“I think it’s better for him to stay at Arsenal, because the style of play suits him perfectly,” he added.‘’It might not be easy for him to go on loan and adapt somewhere else. He needs to stay and fight for his shirt.”
The current Nigeria international has made 18 substitute appearances plus six starts in the league for the Gunners this season.
