Arsenal midfielder Smith Rowe: Huddersfield move backed by Arteta

Arsenal prospect Emile Smith Rowe says he's in regular contact with manager Mikel Arteta while on-loan with Huddersfield Town.

He had made 10 appearances, producing one goal and three assists, before the coronavirus pandemic.

“We have kept in touch during lockdown and we have gone through some clips," Smith Rowe told The National. “He has told me what I need to improve on.

“He said that it is probably the best thing for me to go out [on loan in January].

“You can see he has given the young players chances and that is something all young players should thrive off.

"When you see others playing you want to push yourself and get in that position as well."
