Nicolas Pepe believes he could have been instrumental for Arsenal this season.
The 27-year-old Ivory Coast international’s career at the Emirates has been nothing short of a failure.
His time at Arsenal has been ruined by some inconsistent performances and he failed to live up to his £72million price tag.
He is currently enjoying his season-long loan spell at Nice and believes he could have been valuable to the Arsenal squad this season.
“I’m very happy at Nice, there are still two important months for the club. I want to focus on the last two months and the rest, I don’t know. There will be discussions. I don’t know what Arsenal want to do,” Pepe told francebleu.
“I still have a lot of friends there. I could have been important for this club, but it’s the manager’s choices. I spent my time taking good care of myself and working. Today, yes, I am at 100% of my means even if it will take me a little time to find the pace.
“Despite the injury, I wanted to stay with the team and come to training, I’ve always done it like that.”
