Wenger: Kanu my best January signing
The Frenchman brought the ex-Nigeria international to England in the middle of the 1998/99 season, and he highlighted his impact in his debut campaign.
He came off the bench to make a significant impact in first few outings for the Gunners with goals against Derby County, Sheffield Wednesday, Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa as a substitute. When quizzed about the best move he made in January, Wenger picked Kanu – who he described as a huge player – ahead of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, whom he signed from Borussia Dortmund for a then club-record fee in January 2018.
He was part of the Invincible team that won the 2003-04 Premier League title without losing a game and also won two FA Cups.
