stating: “Yes, obviously, I have in mind to return to Arsenal and have a good pre-season. I want to convince the coach and earn a place in the squad.”
Tavares’ resolve to revive his Arsenal career is a testament to his perseverance and dedication.
With a strong pre-season performance, he may yet have a chance to prove himself and secure a spot in the Gunners’ squad.

Tavares said:
“Regardless of what happens in the future, I will always do my best, as I have done in all pre-seasons, to have a place at the club.
I always try to do my work in the best way. Then it’s up to the club to decide whether I’m a valid option or not.
“But I have a strong mentality. I know what I’m capable of. Sometimes things don’t depend on us, but my job is to focus on myself and do what I do best.
“I played for one of the biggest clubs, Benfica, where there was huge competition.
Therefore, it doesn’t have to be a question of fear of competition, because I know my value and I don’t let anything affect me. I trust my work.
“I went with the intention of playing as many games as possible at Arsenal.
Because it was my first year playing at a high level and in the Premier League, I think 28 games [in my first season at Arsenal] is very good for the first year. It was a good time.”
Nuno Tavares joined Arsenal on July 10, 2021, after signing a long-term contract in a deal worth around £8 million and made his,
Premier League debut on August 13, 2021, as a substitute for Calum Chambers in a 2-0 away defeat to Brentford.
