# Chievo midfielder dreams of Arsenal move

Kosovo midfielder Perparim Hetemaj has admitted that from a young age he supported Arsenal and claims that he dreams of a move to the Premier League at some point in the future.

The Kosovan has started the new Serie A season in fine form and has been a key figure in the Chievo team that has impressed so far. Speaking to [*Gazzetto Dello Sport*](https://gianlucadimarzio.com/en/eng/chievo-hetemaji-was-an-arsenal-when-i-was-growing-up-i-have-a-contract-until-2018-but-i-dream-of-premier-league/), Hetemaj described how, even from a young age, he has always been an Arsenal fan.

> *When I was young I was an Arsenal fan.*

When questioned about his future, the Kosovan admitted that he dreams of a move to the Premier League, but for the time being is solely focused on helping Chievo achieve success and seeing out his contract which ends in 2018.

> *Maybe another dream would be to play in the Premier League.*

Following the recent [injury news](https://readarsenal.com/2015/09/15/surgery-rule-wilshere-action/) regarding Jack Wilshere, who is set to be sidelined for at least three months, Arsene Wenger may be forced to look for a replacement midfielder in the January transfer window and having been in such fine form, Hetemaj is certainly a player that is worth a look at.
