Arsenal's treatment of William Saliba 'lacks logic', blasts furious Saint-Etienne boss Claude Puel
Arsenal have been slammed by Saint-Etienne manager Claude Puel after the French side missed out on re-signing Gunners defender William Saliba on loan. Saliba is yet to make a competitive appearance for Arsenal this season, with the likes of Rob Holding, David Luiz and Gabriel Magalhaes favoured at centre-back.As a result, the 19-year-old nearly left the Emirates on loan and a return to Saint-Etienne was close but fell through late on in the window.Saliba has also been left out of Arsenal's squad for the Europa League and Puel has questioned why Arsenal signed the youngster if they are not going to let him play, either at the Emirates or out on loan.
