Nicolay Dimitrov has just finished a week’s trial with Arsenal and on his return to home soil has been speaking to Bulgarian sports newspaper “Gong”.
He believes that he has impressed Arsene Wenger:
“I have talked with Аrsene Wenger personally. The opinion looks positive but everything will be cleared in January. The two clubs must agree between each other, Dimitrov commented.
He also talked about how welcomed he was made to feel by the Arsenal players and the fantastic comradeship that exists at the club.
“Upon entering the dressing room one by one they conversed with me, saluted me, asked me how am I, which team I play for etc. The all helped me feel one of them”.
He was particularly impressed with Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Adebayor.
"I have established contact with all players at the club. I liked Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Adebayor who are big jokers. The atmosphere in the dressing room is very pleasant and this is one of the reasons for the success of the club”.
"I think I am capable of playing for Arsenal. Of course, I hope my transfer will become a reality in the forthcoming transfer window. I have heard that I have left positive impressions. Arsenal play quick and technical football and that is what I exactly like."
Arsene Wenger is expected to make a decision on Dimitrov in early January. He still has to decide on recent trialist Tresor Mputu who has finished a ten day trial with Arsenal at the end of November.
