  • Age: 26
  • Best Asset: Creativity
  • Goals: 9
  • Previous Clubs: Real Murcia

Signed in this seasons summer transfer window, Garcia who is better known as Kike, has been the firepower when it comes to grabbing the important goals up top.

The Spaniard currently has nine goals in 35 appearances, one of those being the second goal in their 2-0 victory over Manchester City.

The thing that stands out about Garcia the most is his creativity, looking back on some of the ways he controls the ball and takes chances average players wouldn’t. His flair allows him to skip past defenders, making him a real trouble maker in and around the box.

A regular in the starting line up, Garcia knows when to use his energy at the right times, he is a lazy player off the ball but comes alive when a pass can be made through the back line. The Arsenal defence will have to be aware of this, and remember they haven’t got him in their back pockets whilst he’s off the ball.

The 26 year old will want to add to his two goals in the FA Cup already, and will be hot on the chance to impress the top division sides looking on as he never has really had his big chance in any of the higher ranked divisions.

The Gunners take on Middlesbrough in the 5th round of the FA Cup on Sunday afternoon, and Fresh Arsenal will provide loads more content through the week in preparation for the big game.
