Super Eagles midfielder Frank Onyeka has named English Premier League champions, Manchester City, and the first runners-up, Arsenal, the two toughest clubs he has faced since moving to England.
In the just 2022/23 season, the West London club finished in 9th position and surprisingly, they were the only side to beat Pep Guardiola’s side both home and away.
In an interview with Brila FM, the midfielder named the Cityzens and the Gunners the two toughest sides he had faced in England. “It’s the Premier League, every team is hard to play against, but Arsenal and Manchester City, in particular, are the toughest teams; they make you run all through,” Onyeka told Brila FM.
“The Premier League is different in a lot of ways from the Danish League. English football is fast, the pitch and the players are better and stronger.Onyeka was part of the FC Midtjylland side that won the Superliga in 2017/18, playing 15 games. He helped them win the title again in 2019/20 and the Danish Cup in 2019. He played in the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League for Midtjylland, and leaves Denmark having made 123 appearances with 17 goals.All rights reserved.
