Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah appreciates his chance this season.

Nketiah's focus is set on his “favourite" derby: a clash with their biggest rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.

“I've always been an Arsenal supporter," he told the club's website.

"I joined the club at the age of 14 and I'm 23 now so I understand the important of the North London Derby. Nine years is a long time at the club. I've played in quite a few at youth level. I've played a couple at senior level so I know I know what it means."

Nketiah added: "[Last time away at Spurs] wasn't the ideal game. We were in a good position, so obviously that was a disappointing loss and a disappointing end to the season. Of course, that game is in the back of our minds and we want to avenge that.

“At the same time, we just want the 3 points. We want to do it for the fans and every time you play Tottenham, you don't need any extra motivation to be up for it. So it's just about giving our everything."
