Edu Gaspar recently joined the Men In Blazers podcast to discuss all things Arsenal, including his relationship with manager Mikel Arteta.
Edu Gaspar said: “The thing which is important here, is that in the football club, it is impossible to do anything by yourself.
“It’s impossible, so you need people around you, you need your coach, you need your teams, you need, legal, financial, communication, if you want everyone in the same direction to make things happen.
“I can have the best idea in the world, but if you don’t have the right people in the right area, with the right support, it’s impossible, and I think we have that in the collective.
“Mikel’s in all those processes; it’s a key element, and it’s everything. I try to do nothing that he is not comfortable with, and he also tries to do nothing that I am not comfortable with.
“We started our relationship when we didn’t know each other, we just knew each other from hello and goodbye, we never had one-on-one time together, we just played against each other, and then we started to create a relationship.
“With relationships, you need time to prove how you are, how you connect, how you trust each other, and now I think we have one edge which for me is beautiful because I believe we are much more than just sporting director and manager.
“I believe we have a friendship relationship. I know his family, and he knows my family, so we get on well together, so I think we built something special here as well, which helps our relationship but helps the club as well, to make sure that two guys in the same position are alright and they can help the club to move forward.”
