Arsenal idol, Kevin Campbell, is clearly in love with Marquinhos after the Brazilian started his first senior game for the club.
He joined the Gunners in the summer as a relatively unknown player, but he debuted in style against FC Zurich and some of the club’s fans want to see him play again.
His emergence is a major positive because it now hands Arsenal an option on the wing.
The Gunners had been considering signing a new winger, but they could give him a chance to take that spot on their team now.
Campbell believes there isn’t much difference between him and Bukayo Saka.
He tells Football Insider:
“He was Arsenal’s best player and the best player on the pitch if you ask me.
“For someone so young, he is strong. He has speed and man strength which is good. I thought he was direct which I like.
“Marquinhos is a little bit different to Saka but he is still as devastating.
“He scored a great goal. He made up serious ground to get on the end of the cross. What a finish as well.”

Marquinhos is an exciting talent, and he reminds us of a younger Gabriel Martinelli in so many ways.
