Fabregas believes Arsenal will be Manchester City’s biggest challengers this season

Fabregas believes Arsenal will be Manchester City’s biggest challengers this season

 

Former Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas believes Arsenal will be, “the team to look out for” in the Premier League this year in terms of challenging Manchester City’s bid for a fifth consecutive league title.

Speaking on the Planet Premier League podcast, the 37-year-old Como manager said that the Gunners have an, “outstanding team” and came “very, very close” last season.

Mikel Arteta’s side finished two points behind City last campaign. Former Arsenal defensive midfielder Emmanuel Petit said that he was backing his former club to go all the way this season, saying, “they are young, there is a big anger.”

Meanwhile, Fabregas said he was “curious” to see how Liverpool would perform this season under new Dutch manager Arne Slot.

“Everyone talks so well about the new manager,” said the 2010 World Cup winner, adding, “I really want to see what they’re about this year if they can sign some top-level players to increase the quality of the squad.”

The Reds are yet to make a major signing in the transfer window.
