Alex Iwobi admits he may have to quit Arsenal if he were to lose his place to Wilfried Zaha.
The Crystal Palace star is Arsenal’s No 1 transfer target this summer, despite the £80million price tag.
And if Unai Emery is successful in his chase for the Ivory Coast winger, Iwobi could hand the Gunners boss an immediate headache.
‘I am not one to chicken out. I have had it all over the years, being told I’m not good enough’, Iwobi told The Sun.
‘So whenever the chance comes I always try and prove I should be starting. But it’s going to be difficult if Zaha comes. He will add more stress.
‘I am up for the fight but the only time I would consider leaving is if I am not playing as much as I would like to.
If it comes to that I would have no choice but to leave. But I would always put up a fight to play – that is what I have done all my life.’
Arsenal had an opening £40m bid for Zaha rejected earlier this month and have yet to register a second offer.
