Abou Diaby on Arsène Wenger: “I will never be able to thank him enough for what he did for me.”

Speaking to SFR Sport, current free agent and former Arsenal and Marseille central midfielder Abou Diaby discussed his relationship with Arsène Wenger.

“He is someone who is able to understand the personality of his players and uses that to make them successful. The players then feel good. The most important thing for me was that he believed in me. He is someone who understood me. He is someone who was enormously patient with me. Things started well but afterwards I had injuries and problems etc. But he always there for me. I will never be able to thank him enough for what he did for me.”
