Rob Holding claims that, for him, signing for Arsenal is the stuff of dreams.

In his ‘Meet Rob Holding’ video with Arsenal’s official YouTube channel, the 20-year-old talks about his recent move from Bolton Wanderers and the ‘whirlwind’ that surrounded it.

The defender also reveals that he’s always admired the way the Gunners play football and says that he’s ‘over the moon’ to sign for them.

The centre-back believes that although there is stiff competition in the current Arsenal squad, it’ll only push him to improve.

So far, Holding has shown huge potential, especially when shoved into a difficult situation because of injuries to senior defenders. He seems incredibly mature and although we now have Shkodran Mustafi who will presumably take up a starting role at the back, it’s good to know that we have Rob on hand to step in once again if needs be.
