So far this season, Nwaneri has made 10 appearances for Arsenal, demonstrating the increased faith that ꦚMikel Arteta has i🌜n the youngster.

Arsenal ready to pen new long-term contract with Ethan Nwaneri
Nwaneri has long been considered as a star of the future by Arsenal, and they worked hard to tie him 🅠to his first deal last year.
The youngster could only sign a limited deal when turning 17 in March, but whe✱n he turns 18 – Arsenal already have plans in motion to reward the midfielder.
The finer details of the deal sti🐻ll need to be sorted, but that isn’t seen as an issue from either side, and agreement will be reached ahead of his birthday – when he will sign his new contract.
Nwaneri, as e💖xpected, made the breakthrough into the first-team this season and Arteta believes that he has a ꩲhuge future.
Despite the fact that the Gunners are currently still looking for Edu’s replacement, the systems are in place for them to conclude a deal for Nwaneri, which will be welcome news in north 🏅London.
Riccardo Calafiori has explained the Ethan Nwaneri hype
Speaking in a recent inte🐈rview, Riccardo Calafiori talked up Nwaneri’s potential.
Theo Walcott spotted Arsenal’s Nwaneri mistake, but the Italian d🌳efender seemed to think that the 17-year-old was on the right path.
Speaking after Nwaneri scor🎉ed against Nottingham Forest, Calafiori said: “I’m really happy for him. He really deserved it.
“For m♉e, he 🐲is a pure talent and for sure you will see more from him on the pitch.
“Yes [we are hಞelping him settle], but they [young players] don’t even need it because they feel a part of us from the first day. I felt the same when I came here. This is⛄ our secret.”
Asked if he had seen a 17-year-old as good as Nwaneri, Calafiori replied: “No, I don’t think so. I’ve never seen iꦉt. He can be really good.”
