Who is Karl Hein? The Arsenal wonderkid making first-team debut vs Brighton in Carabao Cup

Third-choice Arsenal goalkeeper Karl Hein will make his first-team debut against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Carabao Cup this evening.

The 20-year-old was promoted to the Arsenal first-team squad over the summer following the sale of Bernd Leno to Fulham. Despite making the substitutes bench on a number of occasions this season, the Estonia international has not yet made it onto the pitch for the Gunners.
