Great news for Arsenal, but can Ethan Nwaneri really step up to be the star you all expect, or is this just hype?
Prove me wrong with his next performance! 😄

Why tie down a kid who’s barely played senior football? Just another overhyped wonderboy Arsenal will bench for seasons . what’s the point?

Come on you Gunners. The EPL is not ready for my boy. Big news for the Arsenal community. Funny Chelsea thought they could have him.

He rejected Chelsea to stay at the best club in London. Respect to Ethan. Give him the number 10

What will Ethan Nwaneri’s Arsenal role be next year?
Seeing as the Gunners have added Madueke, and they look set to sign another winger too, he could have a much more reduced role in Arteta’s side.
Either Arsenal could send him out on loan, or Nwaneri will play in most of the cup matches, lesser Premier League games and Champions League group stage games in order to get more game time.
Either way, it is fantastic news for the Gunners who have secured an 18-year-old who managed to score nine goals, and provide two assists in his first full season for Arsenal.
