Hatem Ben Arfa given fresh chance to shine at Hull City
French midfielder Hatem Ben Arfa appears to have found a new lease of life at Hull City after his summer move from Newcastle United. The former Olympique de Marseille and Olympique Lyonnais playmaker has earned the full backing of Tigers manager Steve Bruce.
Bruce expressed confidence in the 27-year-old’s ability to make a significant impact on the team. Speaking about his new signing, Bruce said: “He will have an important role here because he gives us the flexibility to change our system. All I want from him is for him to enjoy himself on the pitch, feel wanted and appreciated.”
Ben Arfa, once regarded as one of France’s most talented midfielders, now has a clear opportunity to revive his career under Bruce’s guidance. Whether the trust placed in him is blind faith or well-earned confidence remains to be seen, but the player will surely be eager to prove his manager right.
