William Saliba has claimed Mikel Arteta 'judged me on two-and-a-half matches' and 'told me I wasn't ready' in a furious outburst at the Arsenal manager.
The 19-year-old joined Arsenal from Saint-Etienne in the summer of 2019 for £27million and was immediately sent back out on loan to the Ligue 1 club.
But when he arrived in London, Saliba failed to make a single senior appearance for the Gunners before being shipped out on loan to Nice in January after Arteta deemed him not ready for first-team action.
Saliba has impressed in the early stages of his return to France.
