Omar Rekik in Arsenal first-team training
Omar Rekik moved Arsenal from Hertha Berlin in January 2021 and has already made his debut for the Tunisia national football team.
The 20-year-old central defender is playing for the Arsenal youth team at the moment, but he was training with the senior side over the weekend.
The youngster has yet to make an appearance for the Arsenal first team this season, but he has played three times in the EFL Trophy.
According to Football.London, Arsenal paid Hertha £600,000 for Rekik, who must be over the moon to be training with the Gunners’ senior side.
Rekik played for Tunisia at the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations, and it shows just how good he is already.
