The player to give Arsenal big worry in Rennes clash revealed

France international and Rennes winger Ben Arfa has been identified as the player who will hand major worries to the North London outfit Arsenal in their Europa League clash against the Ligue 1 outfit.

Ben Arfa is known to have worked under the Gunners boss Unai Emery and they are set to have a reunion with suggestions that the player will want to prove a point to his former boss.

Rennes coach Julien Stephan has tipped Ben Arfa to deliver impressive performance in the game, stressing that he has got a lot of experience and big quality to handle the game against Arsenal, not minding his past relationship with the Arsenal boss.

However, Unai Emery has admitted that Ben Arfa is a great player with a big performance, stressing that the Rennes team have a good organization but noted that his team will do all it takes to control the opponents and their skills.

He stressed that Ben Arfa is not the only good player at Rennes but they have got Ismaila Sarr as well but there is no doubt that they would be caged in the game.

The Gunners will have their first test in France later on Thursday before having their return leg at the Emirates Stadium on March 14.
