Olympique Marseille coach Igor Tudor is delighted counting on Arsenal fullback Nuno Tavares.

Tavares is on a straight loan at OM this season.

Tudor said, "He's a player we wanted from the start. We knew his qualities. He has a huge room for improvement. Sometimes he doesn't realise it. His goals are due to his qualities."

OM defender Sead Kolasinac also said of his former Gunners teammate: “I know him from before, we played together at Arsenal. He's a great guy. On the pitch, you can see what he brings. I don't know if his right foot is better than the left, since he has already scored two goals with the right. We're glad he's here.

"We see him on the field and we love him off because he's a great guy."
