Ethan Nwaneri: Contained in the rise of Arsenal’s star-in-waiting

Arteta’s affect, Odegaard’s inspiration

Nwaneri was formed throughout these years spent splitting his time between college and Arsenal’s academy, the place his 15-year-old brother, Emerson, can be enrolled. However Arteta’s position in his rise to prominence has been vital too.

Though he claimed the choice at hand Nwaneri his Premier League bow aged 15 in 2022 was motivated by “gut instinct” on the time, in actuality it was extra calculated, an try to indicate the membership’s most prodigiously proficient younger participant a pathway to the first-team.

Arteta had, in spite of everything, been conscious of Nwaneri’s skills since his very first week within the job three years earlier, when he sought out Micciche, one in every of his coaches on the time, to quiz him on a participant already turning heads aged 12 at Hale Finish, and asking for a video to be despatched to him.

Arteta adopted his progress intently from that time on and was actively concerned within the membership’s efforts to safe his future on the membership, sitting in on conferences with Nwaneri’s household alongside Edu, Arsenal’s now departed sporting director, and academy personnel.

“Retaining Ethan was not a foregone conclusion,” says Micciche. “I don’t mean he threatened to leave or anything like that, I just mean it was common knowledge that this boy was special. He could have gone anywhere in Europe.

“There is not any doubt different large golf equipment in England had been nicely conscious of him as a result of Arsenal by no means hid him and he at all times carried out nicely towards them. It helped that Mikel was so concerned, additionally having him prepare with the first-team very early and taking him on pre-season excursions.”

Nwaneri eventually formalised his commitment to Arsenal, despite interest from elsewhere, by signing his first professional contract after his 17th birthday in March and soon became a fully-fledged member of the senior squad.

Arteta has marvelled at his bravery and personality – “you possibly can inform he performs with out strain and with confidence,” he said earlier this season – but there has also been a focus on improving his defensive work, and honing his understanding of the complex off-the-ball demands of the Spaniard’s system.


Nwaneri has taken the duty with attribute willingness, helped by the actual fact he counts membership captain Martin Odegaard as a task mannequin and mentor. The Norwegian stands out for his off-the-ball intelligence in addition to his attacking qualities. His steering, as a participant who additionally made his skilled debut aged 15, has been invaluable.

“You have to remember Ethan is obsessed with football,” says Micciche. “He has always learned a lot from watching his role models and that has been accelerated by training with the first team every day.”

Nwaneri’s future now appears brighter with each look. He virtually adopted his first Premier League aim with one within the Champions League throughout his newest cameo, towards Sporting on Tuesday evening.

His speedy progress isn’t any shock to his former coaches.

“I was fortunate to coach Phil Foden, Jadon Sancho and Cole Palmer in England’s youth teams,” says Micciche. “For me, Ethan is in that tier.

“When he was 13 or 14, I’d say to folks at Arsenal that he was on the stage of these gamers, if no more superior.”

The comparison with Foden is particularly interesting given that, at 17, Nwaneri has already made more Premier League appearances than the Manchester City forward had at 18.

He is ahead of fellow academy graduate Bukayo Saka for appearances at the same age too, which is all the more impressive considering the level at which Arsenal are now competing.

When Saka emerged, they were scrapping for top-four finishes. It is far tougher for a young player to make his mark in a team challenging for major honours but that is exactly what Nwaneri is doing.

“On the age he’s, enjoying for a membership as large as Arsenal and being on the pitch and having an affect, there isn’t any doubt Ethan has the possibility to turn out to be an everyday starter and a key participant, within the mould of Bukayo,” says Micciche. “He has all of the attributes and, as you are seeing, he’s not fazed by something.

“What I love most about him is that his feet do the talking for him. He goes about his business quietly. He’s very humble, very focused and very driven. He’s an absolute pleasure to work with.”

And that is simply the beginning. Ethan Nwaneri is Subsequent Up.
