Wenger: Kanu was my best winter signing

Legendary Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has led the Gunners from 1996 to 2018 and is arguably the most successful coach in the club’s history.

He has brought in a number of players in 22 years, but when it comes to winter reinforcements, there is no doubt who is the best. The last major transfer of Arsenal in the January transfer window is Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, but Wenger does not think that the Gabonese national team player is first on the list.

“It’s Nwankwo ​​Kanu. “He arrived in the middle of the season, had a big impact on the game and was a fantastic player.”

The Nigerian came to Arsenal from Inter in 1999 for 4.7 million pounds. He did not play for the Milan club, he played in only 12 matches in 2.5 seasons, but the reason for that is the heart anomaly that was revealed to him after the transfer to Inter and because of that he paused almost the whole first season. In 5.5 years with Arsenal, he won two Premier League titles and two FA Cups.
