[SPORT] Arsenal get new celebrity convert after Kanu's Wenger remark

A Nigerian celebrity has declared his will to support Arsenal following Kanu Nwankwo's tribute to Arsene Wenger upon the Frenchman's exit announcement at the North London club.

Former Arsenal player, Kanu Nwankwo has gone to his social media pages to pen a thoughtful tribute to the 68-year old manager who he played under during his time at the Emirates which caught the attention of Nollywood actor, Alex Ekubo.

"Big shoes for anyone to fill, playing for Arsenal under Arsene was one of the best periods of my career, 2 premiership, 2 FA cups, the invincibles, playing with some of the best-assembled players, influencing millions of fans in Africa to support this great club are some of the memories that come to fore today but above all the privilege to have played for a gentleman like Wenger is most cherished.
