Arsenal Under-18s coach Jack Wilshere is the perfect mentor to take Ethan Nwaneri under his wing, according to Martin Odegaard. The 15-year-old was brought on in the latter stages of the Gunners' clash with Brentford and became the youngest ever player to play in the Premier League.
Nwaneri, who made his Under-21s debut last month, came on for Fabio Vieira to help the north London side see out a 3-0 win. The midfielder was thrown into the spotlight and quickly became Hale End's next big star over night.
Odegaard was subject to just as much - if not more - coverage when he too made his senior debut at the same age before becoming heavily linked with a move to a vast majority of Europe's biggest clubs. A year later, at just 16-years-old, he penned a deal with Real Madrid and, like Nwaneri, had the weight of the world on his shoulders.
