"I wanted to try a new challenge at Bayer Leverkusen", Granit Xhaka: I wouldn't change Arsenal for anything else

Granit Xhaka chose to leave Arsenal to join Bayer Leverkusen in Germany. The well-known midfielder gave an interview to "Marca", where he answered various questions.

" I spent 7 wonderful years at Emirates Stadium. I had offers from other Premier League clubs, but I wouldn't change Arsenal for any other team. I didn't want to play against them.

It was not an easy decision for me to leave Arsenal, also the club did not want to let me go. I have a lot of respect for Mikel Arteta, but I wanted to try a new challenge at Bayer Leverkusen".

They both have similar philosophies, Arteta is exceptional and not only as a coach. He and Alonso see football differently from other coaches ," said Xhaka.
