Arsenal FC v Fulham FC - Premier League
Arsenal are in the closing stages of contract negotiations with wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri as they look to tie the young attacker down to a new deal.
WHAT HAPPENED?
According to The Athletic, Arsenal have entered into the closing stages of talks with Nwaneri over a new contract and the teenager is now ready to commit his long-term future to the club. Having previously been utilised on the right wing during Bukayo Saka's absence through injury, it is now believed Nwaneri will play more centrally and provide competition to club captain Martin Odegaard, who suffered a dip in form affected by injuries last season.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
Nwaneri has fewer than 12 months left on his current contract and has attracted major interest from sides around Europe who were plotting a free transfer. Arsenal weren't allowed to offer the youngster a new deal until he turned 18 in March, but he has been away on holiday and represented the England Under-21s in that time. However, Nwaneri has always prioritised staying at the Emirates Stadium and, after contract talks intensified following his return from the Under-21s European Championship, is set to sign new terms.
DID YOU KNOW?
Nwaneri enjoyed a breakout campaign under Mikel Arteta during the 2024-25 campaign, contributing nine goals and two assists. He previously became the youngest player ever to feature in a Premier League match when he made his debut against Brentford aged 15 years and 181 days in 2022.
