Ex-Arsenal manager Wenger: Not only Guendouzi who has huge potential

Former Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has spoken about the youngsters at the club that he believes have the most potential.

The French legend has kept most of his thoughts about their current circumstances to himself since departing the Emirates Stadium team.

But he recently spoke about Matteo Guendouzi, Joe Willock and Reiss Nelson in an interview with the Arsenal website.

Wenger told Arsenal's website: "He [Guendouzi] looks to be a good potential.

"I think there are many other players who have fantastic potential, who played already with me, like Joe Willock and you have Reiss Nelson.

"You have many players who come out and have a big potential and Guendouzi is one of them.

"It's part of our DNA at Arsenal [giving youth a chance]. It has always been part of it, to give a chance.

"I think when you are a manager and you can give a chance to a young boy, it's always fantastic. And when they can play at such a high level like Arsenal, it's even better."
