Arsenal midfielder Mikel Merino has opened up about how winning the European Championship earlier this year has shaped his arrival and role at the North London club. The Spanish international, who joined Arsenal this season, emphasized the respect and admiration such an achievement commands among teammates, especially in a squad filled with young talents.

Speaking about the impact of his triumph, Merino said, “We players have a lot of respect. We know how hard it is to win these things. You say, ‘Oysters, this one has had to do things right to win one of these tournaments.’ That respect and admiration from your teammates is noticeable, especially when you arrive at such a club, with many young players, and you being one of the veterans.”

Merino’s experience and leadership have already made him a key figure at Arsenal, with the midfielder eager to contribute to the club’s development. He revealed that Arsenal’s project to cultivate a winning culture played a pivotal role in his decision to join. “I was seduced by Arsenal to be a participant in building a winning culture,” he added.

Beyond his leadership qualities, Merino is also determined to make his mark on the pitch, particularly in the attacking third. “I want to be decisive near the area, it’s what money is paid for,” he stated, highlighting his desire to deliver impactful performances that drive Arsenal’s ambitions this season.

As Arsenal continues to battle on multiple fronts, Merino’s winning mentality and experience could prove crucial in instilling belief and consistency within the squad. With Arsenal aiming to challenge for major honors, the Spaniard’s influence both on and off the pitch will undoubtedly be vital.
