Emile Smith Rowe was loaned out to Bundesliga side RB Leipzig in the January transfer window. The player was injured at the time and has only recently recovered.
The move has so far not been successful as the player has not even been integrated int the first team and it is unlikely he will be getting much game time of the remaining 7 matches in the league.
However, Rowe remains positive about his move and wants to make an impact.
The Bundesliga is a really good league,” Smith Rowe told Arsenal’s official YouTube channel. “There are a lot of good players here and big teams as well. It’s like the Premier League really. Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, Leipzig, Hoffenheim, Schalke – all big teams, all Champions League teams really. I think it’s a great opportunity.”
“I can’t wait to play in front of the fans,” he admitted. “I think it will be really good. Obviously, the stadium is really big and it’s a great atmosphere. When I first went to one of the games, the fans were just always singing. Obviously, that happens at Arsenal as well, but over here it’s just crazy.”
“I think it’s definitely a big step at such a young age, but I think that’s a great experience,” he explained. “Seeing Reiss and other young players take the step, obviously doing well and enjoying themselves, that has really boosted my confidence.
“It really gave me the impression that this was something I wanted to do and I obviously took the risk. I just can’t wait to get fit and play.”
The logical conclusion we can draw is that Arsenal will want Rowe to continue to stay out on loan at Leipzig next season as well so as to let the youngster get in the groove with the game and improve his quality.
