Alioski ‘can’t wait’ to face Pepe again after red card controversy in Leeds’ last meeting with Arsenal

Ezgjan Alioski “can’t wait” to lock horns with Nicolas Pepe again, claims Patrick Bamford, with the Leeds defender contributing to the Arsenal forward being sent off in their last encounter.

Back in November, during an eventful 0-0 draw at Elland Road, the Gunners saw their Ivorian winger dismissed after butting heads with the Whites full-back.

Alioski came in for criticism on the back of that incident, with the Macedonian accused of going to ground too easily, but the enigmatic 28-year-old is looking forward to renewing acquaintances with Pepe.
