Arsenal are reportedly fighting to keep hold of Ethan Nwaneri, with Chelsea and Manchester City keen to sign the young star when his contract expires.
Nwaneri made headlines in September when he came off the bench in Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Brentford to become the youngest player in the Premier League. He was aged 15 years and 181 days old at the time and the appearance sparked hype around the attacking midfielder.
Now the Gunners are just three days away from potentially losing Nwaneri to a rival club, with his current contract set to expire at the end of June. Now 16, Nwaneri’s schoolboy registration runs out on July 1, meaning he will become free to move elsewhere.
