Pablo Longoria rules out option to buy in Ethan Nwaneri loan

Marseille president Pablo Longoria has confirmed there is no option to buy in Ethan Nwaneri’s loan from Arsenal.

“An option to buy? Let’s be very clear about one thing: an option to buy is unrealistic,” he told The Telegraph.

“He is one of Arsenal’s main assets for the future.”

Nwaneri made an instant impression, scoring a spectacular debut goal against RC Lens just 24 hours after signing, a moment that electrified the Vélodrome.

“For us, the value lies in his talent and his sporting performances. For Arsenal, it’s about his contribution to the game, and for the player, it’s a step in his progression and the fact of being coached by Roberto [De Zerbi].”
