    As soon as he arrived at Arsenal, Takehiro Tomiyasu couldn’t have imagined that he would start so well.

    The Japanese defender has made a big impression in his first few weeks at the club. And has gag to those who call him nothing more than a last-minute panicked purchase.

    When he arrived at Arsenal, the cannons were stuck at the bottom of the table. With 9 goals conceded from the first 3 games in the Premier League

    Just less than a month now They moved mid-table and picked up nine points from Norwich, Burnley and Spurs, until the latest draw with Brighton. With three of them keeping three clean sheets.

    “What’s incredible about Tomi is that he won’t accept anything that is not successful,” Pinto said.

    “He wasn’t lucky. Nothing for Tomi comes with luck. He is a very diligent player.”

    “You find a lot of hardworking players, but Tomi has a little bit of the same mentality as Cristiano Ronaldo in terms of commitment, hard work and limiting healthy eating.”

    “He’s the type of player who is never satisfied with anything. He will continue to work hard to improve himself.”

    Tomiyasu’s determination to become a professional player was born at an early age.

    When he stepped up as a rising star for hometown team Avispa Fukuoka, he already knew the path he wanted to take. His ambition has always been to reach the Premier League stage.
