    Selected context from the News:

    Kai featured regularly against us during his three years at Stamford Bridge. So, what were his first impressions of Arsenal?

    “From outside, Arsenal always looked like a family,” he says. “That’s the feeling I got when playing. And when I joined, that was exactly what it was like, and the staff are really nice too – and that makes life easier for a new player.

    “From the first minute that I spoke to Mikel about joining Arsenal, I had this feeling that he respects all of us very much, so that was also a big part of me joining the club. I just felt the togetherness of the club from the players and especially within the fans and the whole club.

    “At the training ground it’s like a big family – and this is a big factor to achieve great things.”

    Kai, who was a team-mate of Jorginho at Chelsea, has seen his integration into our first-team dressing room has been aided by no shortage of friendly faces.

    “Before I joined, I spoke a lot with Declan Rice as well, who I know through Mason Mount,” he says. “For me it was very easy to come into the team because there are so many young players. I’ve played against a lot of them already so I know them from the pitch, and I have found it easy to make friends here. Hopefully it will continue like this.”
