Arsenal wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri has decided to commit his future to the Gunners by agreeing a new long-term contract.

The 18-year-old’s previous deal was due to expire in June next year, and there were concerns that he could be sold this summer.

The likes of Chelsea and Manchester City tried to persuade Nwaneri, but he was always determined to find a solution at Arsenal.

Nwaneri has now committed to a new four-year deal and has also received assurances of playing time from the number 10 role.

The youngster is aware that he won’t be guaranteed a starting spot and he is more than willing to compete with Martin Odegaard.

An announcement could be made on his renewal before the Gunners fly out for their pre-season tour of Asia at the weekend.

Arsenal are also expected to confirm the signings of Noni Madueke, Cristhian Mosquera and Viktor Gyokeres by then.

They are likely to make one more signing before the transfer deadline.
