The Arsenal captaincy confusion has finally come to a resolution with head coach Unai Emery appointing midfielder Granit Xhaka his new first-choice captain as part of a new “five captains” regime.
The Spaniard believes the Switzerland midfielder is the ideal option to lead his side and explained the appointment by saying, “I talked to him and we want to change that opinion outside because the respect he has inside is very important.”
“But also to show outside, keep moving ahead, playing, improving, behaviour, commitment and in each match is for him, me and for everybody a very good opportunity to show his capacity.
