Mustafi has spoken from first-hand experience of what his new Arsenal colleague can bring to the Emirates.

Ultimately, though, Arsenal welcomed the additions of La Liga stars Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi, and the two could be set to make their debuts this Saturday against Southampton. Having played against him, Mustafi definitely knows all about the Spanish star, and the centre-back believes that he has all the attributes to make it big with the Gunners.

Mustafi is confident that the striker will not only provide the goals, but will also help create chances for other teammates owing to his good work rate.

“He said that he’s happy here, that the people are insane for football and that it’s a team that enjoys playing football the way that he does, the way that I do”.

The defender further talked about his new teammate Lucas Perez.

“He’s someone you can play well with”.

It’s that time of the year again when Arsenal fans bemoan their club’s performance in the transfer market, but console themselves with the thought that their club actually does have one of the best squads in the league. “I played there for two years and I know it’s not that easy to score many goals in LaLiga, because you have great defenders there as well”, Mustafi added.

“I think he’s going to help the team a lot”, the Germany worldwide added.

The pair, who are both available to face the Saints, were the star attraction given their recent arrival at the club as they got used to conditions at Arsenal’s London Colney training ground.
