Brentford manager Frank blown away by Arsenal defender Saliba - 'I must say, ooft!'

Brentford manager Thomas Frank is adamant Arsenal defender William Saliba will start for France for years to come.

Saliba scored a brilliant header in Arsenal's 3-0 win over Brentford on Sunday.

The 21-year-old has also earned a call-up to France's squad for their upcoming Nations League fixtures, which Frank says is not surprising.

"I must say Saliba, ooft! He's going to be a full international player for France, I'm sure," Frank said in his post-match press conference.

"He'll play in the starting line-up soon for that national team and that's a strong national team."
