Shkrodan Mustafi is one of the most talked about defenders at Arsenal.
More than anything, he is talked about in a negative light. Indeed, his career was going so badly at the club, that most people wanted him to retire.
However, Mustafi was never going to give up.
He came close to being sold off by the club but has now revealed he wants to stay at Arsenal.
“If you think things are over for you, then you should retire,” Mustafi said after Thursday’s 1-0 win at Olympiacos. “That’s not like you should think as a professional. You always get the opportunities and a team has more than 20 players for a reason.
“The main thing for me was to be professional because as long as you stay professional, you have no fault for anything. Stay professional, wait until you get your next opportunity and then take it.
“In the beginning of the season, not being selected, not making the squad, it has been difficult,” Mustafi said. “But I am a person who tries to see more the positive things than the negatives. I think that helped me a lot.”
