5 players who have played for both Arsenal and Juventus

#3 Stephan Lichtsteiner

The 34-year-old Lichsteiner was signed by Arsenal at the beginning of the 2018-19 season as cover for Hector Bellerin. He is a full back who is capable of playing in either side of the pitch. He has struggled to find a regular place in the starting line-up of the Gunners and played in 17 matches this season so far.

Prior to being signed by Arsenal, he had played for Juventus from 2011 to 2018. He was signed by them in 2011 and went on to spend 7 seasons at Italy. He also scored 15 goals in 257 matches for them and won 7 successive Serie A titles. He was a part of the squad that finished as runner-up in the UEFA Champions League in 2014-15 and 2016-17.

Lichtsteiner is a very fast fullback, who prefers to go into overlaps often. He is also quite reliable as a defender and can play as a wing back too. It remains to be seen if the veteran manages to cement his place in the starting line-up of Arsenal.
