Ethan Nwaneri shines in first team appearance weeks after signing his scholarship



 Ethan Nwaneri made his first Arsenal first team appearance since signing his scholarship deal weeks ago and showed everyone why every top team and manager wants him at their team.

The 16 year old came on in the second half and did not waste anytime to show host how talented he is with his footwork and calmness in possession. 

In one show of skills he took out two players in a clip that went on to go viral and left fans wanting more.

Considering the young man has only just finished school and only just started training full time for the first time a few weeks ago, this could be a break out season if he gets fit and stays fit. He has too much talented to be wasted in the reserve matches. 

He will likely make more appearances for the first team and in cup matches too. But remember arsenal are fighting for the title so need to ensure their new wonder kid is used wisely and with the right balance. 

Arsenal fans have the right to be excited. The boy is very likely to be a superstar and hale end can be proud of another product of their academy. 

Arsenal went on draw the game 1 - 1 before heading out to the USA Tour. 

Nwaneri was not part of the tour as he had to work on his fitness ahead of the new season. 

Arsenal genuinely believe he is as good as a new signing once he is fully fit.
