Arteta has said that Pepe always works hard in training at London Colney and gives his all when it comes to helping Arsenal achieve their objectives.
Mikel Arteta on Arsenal winger Nicolas Pepe
Arteta said about Pepe: “Again, he’s another one. A completely different character to Cedric but every day in his own way he’s trying to help the team when he’s needed.”
Fringe player
Pepe has become a fringe player at Arsenal this season and now rarely starts in the Premier League.
The Ivory Coast international winger has made five starts and 10 substitute appearances in the Premier League for the Gunners so far this season.
The Arsenal no. 19 has scored one goal and given one assist in those games.
In our opinion, Pepe should seriously consider a move away from Arsenal in the summer transfer window.
Pepe is 26 now, and he is not going to get better by warming the bench.
We all can agree that Arsenal are not going to get anywhere near the £72 million they paid for the winger, but the Gunners could get £30 million or so.
In our opinion, Pepe should look at moving on, and Arsenal should be open to an exit for the winger.
