Gilberto Silva has said on his podcast that Arsenal should be wary of Tottenham Hotspur winger Gareth Bale ahead of the match at the Emirates Stadium this weekend.
Arsenal will take on Tottenham in the North London derby on Sunday.
The Gunners won in the Europa League on Thursday, and so did their bitter North London rivals Spurs.
Arsenal legend Silva believes that Mikel Arteta’s side have to be wary of winger Bale, who returned to Tottenham on loan from Real Madrid in the summer of 2020.
Silva said about Bale on his podcast: “Another player for Arsenal to be concerned, of course, because he has got quality and partnership with Harry Kane. He also is another player who understands the dimension of this game. Everyone at Arsenal needs to be aware.”
Big player for Tottenham Hotspur
Bale is back in form now and is playing well at the moment, and there is a very good chance that the Wales international winger will start against Arsenal in the North London derby this week.
The 31-year-old came off the bench against Dinamo Zagreb in the Europa League on Thursday and showed his quality.
The winger scored twice for Spurs in their win against Crystal Palace in the Premier League last weekend.
Bale, Harry Kane and Son Heung-min starting in attack for Spurs could be very damaging for Arsenal.
