Arsenal have officially announced the signing of Vincent Joseph, following the young striker’s decision to run down his contract with former club Liverpool.
The club report that Joseph is joining as part of Arsenal’s first-year scholarship intake for the 2026/27 season, with the player expected to continue his development in u18 football after his debut at that level last season.
Liverpool had made an effort to convince Joseph to stay, offering him a scholarship contract this summer, but he turned them down.

Despite Joseph being out of contract with Liverpool, a compensation fee still needed to be agreed due to his age.
Reports in August suggested that the two clubs had failed to reach a deal agreement, and the matter would go to a tribunal. That tribunal evidently reached a positive resolution.

As mentioned, Joseph made his breakthrough into u18 Premier League football last season, scoring three goals in his two appearances for Liverpool.
The young striker has also scored eight goals in his nine games for the England u16s, with all of those appearances coming in the course of the 2025/26 campaign.
Arsenal have been on the lookout for youth strikers in recent transfer windows, and they missed out on Will Wright to Liverpool just last year.
But after completing moves for Blackburn Rovers’ Igor Tyjon, Crystal Palace’s Mylo Bernard and now Liverpool’s Joseph, the Gunners seem to have found their attacking academy additions.
