Arsenal defender Rob Holding has revealed that he is starting to get recognised by people in public places.

Arsenal signed Holding from Bolton Wanderers during the summer and it has to be said that the defender was not a well-known figure among many football fans upon his arrival at the Emirates Stadium.

The move to the Gunners has most certainly raised Holding's profile and the young defender has now gone on to reveal how people are beginning to recognise him on London's tube.

The 21-year-old told Arsenal.com: "I was on the tube the other day and these young lads were sat just opposite me, just on the angle, and I heard them say 'is that Rob Holding?' and then they were on their phones looking and were like 'yeah, that's Rob Holding'.

"I just started looking down when I heard them say it because I didn't want to start smiling. So I was just like looking down and not letting them see that I was smiling for it.

"If someone came up to me and said, 'are you Rob Holding?' then I'd just be like 'yeah, nice to meet you'. And then if they wanted a photo, I'd pose for a photo and if they wanted something signed then I'd take the time to do it."
