Arsenal midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga has told Sudinfo Sports that he can improve on his goalscoring and providing assists.
Lokonga, who joined Arsenal in the summer transfer window, has said that he knows that scoring is an area that he needs to work on.
The 22-year-old has said that he knows that he can do more in terms of providing assists and the final ball..
The midfielder said when asked about scoring or providing an assist: “Exactly (laughs). This is clearly one of the things I can improve.”
Important player for Arsenal
Lokonga joined Arsenal from Anderlecht in the summer transfer window.
Injury and suspension to Granit Xhaka has handed the youngster the chance to play regularly for the Gunners.
And the Belgium international has repaid Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta’s faith in him.
The Arsenal no. 23 has made six starts and three substitute appearances in the Premier League so far this season.
Lokonga has made one start and one substitute appearance in the Carabao Cup for the Gunners so far this campaign.
Now, when Xhaka comes back fully fit, then it is likely that Arteta will partner him with Thomas Partey in the middle of the park.
However, if Lokonga continues to play well and develop his game, then he could well change Arteta’s mind.
