Quite a lot of Arsenal loanees are impressing this season.

The likes of William Saliba and Matteo Guendouzi are doing well at Marseille – very well, actually.

And Dinos Mavropanos is doing the business since leaving Arsenal to join Stuttgart on a temporary basis.

It isn’t the same level as France or Germany, but another Hale End graduate is impressing in Scotland, too.

Arsenal loaned Harry Clarke to Ross County this past summer and considering he has won the club’s Player of the Month award for October, you could say he’s doing a fine job up North.

The versatile 20-year-old, who’s been playing right-back as of late, scored no fewer than three goals for the Scottish Premiership side last month.

And here’s how some fans of the North London club reacted on Twitter:

Clarke’s goal will ultimately be to succeed at Arsenal and to be fair, he’s giving himself a good shot.

All he can do is perform where and when asked to do so – and Clarke is doing just that up in Scotland.

As mentioned, the Scottish Premiership isn’t as highly regarded as Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga, and therefore Saliba and Mavropanos might stand out that bit more.

But Mikel Arteta has proven time and again that he’ll give you chances if you work hard in training.

And if Clarke gets another pre-season at Arsenal, after maintaing this form all season long, who knows what could happen.
