Arsenal ‘aware’ of Leicester City star Daka – Arteta
The Zambia striker moved to England from RB Salzburg in June and he has started to find his feet in Brendan Rodgers' team next month
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said they are mindful of ‘strong’ Leicester City striker Patson Daka ahead of their Premier League match on Saturday.
The Gunners head to the King Power Stadium with the hopes of extending their eight-game unbeaten run across all competitions.
Daka has made a promising start to life in England, since he joined the Foxes on a five-year contract in June.
The Zambia international has scored five goals in all competitions so far, after opening his Premier League goal account against Manchester United a fortnight ago and he scored four goals in a Europa League game against Spartak Moscow on October 20.
When asked about Daka in Friday’s press conference, Arteta said: “Yes we’ve been aware of him. I think Leicester have been really strong and clever in their recruitment over the years - that they have been able to build the team that they have. He’s looks a really strong player.”
