“Very, very good player," Kanu told Goal. "I hope you have seen him play, then you will know that he is good.

“He played for Nigeria before the World Cup, a friendly game against Atletico Madrid.

“He scored a fantastic goal, so he keeps playing and keeps progressing and keeps growing.

“I keep advising him. I hope one day they will open the door for him to come back to play for Arsenal."
