Angha & Hajrovic – Arsenal’s Latest Swiss Duo
http://youngguns.wordpress.com/2 ... s-latest-swiss-duo/
In the summer of 2002 Arsenal snapped up two promising Swiss defenders in the form of Philippe Senderos and Johan Djourou. Now seven years later the Gunners have repeated that feat with the additions of Martin Angha and Sead Hajrovic.
Senderos arrived among interest from several big clubs, with Arsenal edging a bidding war for the then youngster – in a similar way to Martin Angha. Djourou however, was a relative unknown. He slipped into the Academy much like Hajrovic with the pair both representing Switzerland despite being born in a different country.
As both Philippe and Johan reach cross roads in their careers, Arsène Wenger welcomes his second batch of Swiss stoppers. Angha arrives from FC Zürich where he skippered their Under 16’s to Nike Cup success, and Hajrovic from FC Zürich’s fierce rivals Grasshoppers.
The pair have settled quickly in London and struck up a good friendship. Both are current Under 17 internationals for Switzerland, although the future may see Sead represent his native Bosnia. Martin won’t link up with the squad on a full time basis until the new year, but the 16-year-old’s represent an exciting central defensive partnership for the future.
Hajrovic provides the rugged and aggressive approach. He’s a physical and no nonsense central defender who is a monster in the air. Angha offers a calm and classy approach. Blessed with blistering pace, he is a solid tackler and can pick a good pass out from the back.
Arsenal fans should get a chance to check out the pair in action in the latter stages of next season’s F.A Youth Cup, where they will begin the fight for silverware with the club. It promises to be an exciting campaign with these two on board and with Senderos and Djourou as role models, they have been shown the route to the first-team.
