Impressive winger announces Arsenal the place for me after OFFICIALLY signing up with Gunners
Seb Ferdinand has admitted that Arsenal is the place for him after officially signing up to his first professional deal with the Gunners.
Right winger Sebastian made a total of 18 appearances across the academy last season and was attracting all sorts of interest this summer window after failing to sign his first pro deal with the club.
However – it has now been confirmed that the winger has agreed a new deal with the club – and Ferdinand has opened up and revealed that Arsenal is the place for hi to develop as a player – Speaking to Arsenal.com, Sebastian said: “I’m delighted. It’s a dream that a lot of young boys have, especially growing up around London. Arsenal is the biggest club in London, so it’s a day to celebrate, but not too much because I’m always thinking about what’s next.
“It feels brilliant. Every day we come in, work hard, sacrifice a lot and to finally get rewarded with a professional contract at such a prestigious club, words can’t really describe it.
“Look at what the first team are doing, pushing for titles and in the Champions League. It’s a place where I want to be and develop for the foreseeable future.
“When you see the boys like Bukayo, Reiss, Eddie and Emile in the first team, and Bukayo doing what he’s doing with England, it’s the ultimate motivation and I want that to be me one day.
“My dad has been my coach for as long as I can remember so I thank him for all of the hours that people haven’t seen. My mum of course, and all the coaches at ARSENAL who have really pushed me.”
“I want to bring goals, assists and excitement in front of crowds,” he said. “That’s something I really enjoyed away to Exeter last year. Hopefully I can push for more of those moments and even push for the first team at some point.”
