The new Arsenal contract for the young attacking midfielder Ethan Nwaneri has now been formalized.
The 18 -year -old has resurrected from the Gunners Academy to become an important player from the first team, making 37 appearances last season and scoring nine goals in total.
We imagine that there will now be even more to come from Nwaneri, who has committed his future in Arsenal, saying that he is “so excited” and that he feels “at home” at the Emirates Stadium.
Nwaneri was also a target for Chelsea before deciding to stay with Arsenal, like our AFC columnist and expert, Charles Watts, previously revealed it.
Now, however, the new Nwaneri contract has been formalized on arsenal.com.
Ethan Nwaneri speaks on the signing of a new Arsenal agreement
As cited by the official Arsenal website, Nwaneri said: “The signing of this contract means everything for me. I see this as my first real season in male senior football, as part of the team in the locker room.
“I am so excited for what I can bring to the team, I want to help us win as much as possible and bring happiness and glory to the club. This is where I feel at home. “
Arsenal fans will also be delighted with this news, because Nwaneri looks like a player with a big future at the highest level.
The Arsenal Academy delivers again
It was a few years really positive for the Arsenal Academy, Bukayo Saka proving the greatest success, while Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly also get up as important members of the Mikel Arteta team.
There is also Max Dowman to watch after a few impressive games with the first pre-season team, although he is still only 15 years old, so will probably have to wait a little longer before making more appearances in competitive matches.
Nwaneri also made his debut at Arsenal at the age of 15, becoming the youngest player of the Premier League at the time.
