William Saliba is one of the most promising young talents in football right now, and his performance against Marseille in a friendly match earlier this week has been nothing short of impressive.
The Frenchman, who joined Arsenal from Paris Saint-Germain for £24 million last summer, has made a strong start to life at the Emirates Stadium, scoring two goals and providing three assists in just six appearances so far this season.
But it was his performance against Marseille that really caught the eye. The defender, who is known for his pace and agility on the ball, showed off both of these skills as he helped Arsenal secure a comfortable 4-1 win over their Ligue 1 rivals.
Saliba's first goal came in the 68th minute,Premier League Frontline when he volleyed home from close range after receiving a pass from Bukayo Saka. His second goal arrived in the 75th minute, when he scored with a powerful shot from outside the box.
Overall, Saliba was outstanding throughout the match, dominating the midfield area and causing problems for the Marseille defense. He was also able to provide some much-needed cover for the backline, helping to keep the opposition at bay.
It will be interesting to see how Saliba continues to develop under Arsene Wenger and the rest of the Arsenal coaching staff, but for now, it seems clear that he is already making a significant impact on the Premier League.
