Arsenal have enjoyed success with producing quality players from the Hale End academy in recent years. Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe have both progressed through the club's academy to become valuable members of Mikel Arteta's first team squad since the Spainard’s arrival.
The pair have made a combined 236 appearances for the Gunners with Saka also warranting himself a place in Gareth Southgate's England squad for the World Cup this month. Despite missing large parts of the current campaign due to injury, Smith Rowe is set to play a key role in Arsenal's title race with Manchester City in the second half of the season when he returns to full fitness.
As Arteta's first team prepares to return to domestic action on Boxing Day, work is already underway at London Colney to perfect the next generation of Gunners stars. Earlier this campaign, we saw Ethan Nwaneri make his senior debut at 15 years, 5 months and 23 days to become the Premier League youngest ever player.
