Super Eagles legend has offered words of caution ahead of Nigeria’s World Cup qualifiers.


“He is a good player. Maybe not the player, but perhaps he could score 20 goals a season.

“He draws defenders’ attention, so he could play alongside Kai Havertz or another striker. He would have a bit more freedom, which would allow him to score goals for the club. That is why a striker like him would be a good fit for Arsenal,” Gallas said.

Arsenal will host Chelsea at the Emirates on Sunday as they aim to continue pursuit for the Premier League title.
