Granit Xhaka's birthday gift: permanent captain of Arsenal

Granit Xhaka

 Granit Xhaka has often been on target while at Arsenal, but the coach Unai Emery has backed and praised him for his contribution. Now he has taken another step and decided to make a birthday gift (celebrating his 27th birthday). Xhaka will be the permanent captain, as the BBC's David Ornstein reports.

Emery, before making his final decision, has been consulted with other players and eventually thought of giving the title of the captain to the midfielder, who is also captain of Switzerland.

Now Arsenal will have to deal wi the substitute captain, which will be one between Lacazette and Aubameyang.
