With every new season, Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal team is getting stronger. The selection of players for the first team is getting harder because in the last two seasons, young academy players have made the starting lineup and performed quite well.

One of the gifted young people of his generation is Ethan Nwaneri. Nwaneri, who was born in 2007, hasn’t played a game for Arsenal’s first team since making his debut against Brentford in September 2022, but he still puts on a strong performance for the Gunners and senior England squad. youthful.

Before scoring an incredible goal in the team’s quarterfinal, Ethan Nwaneri of England U-17 produced a fantastic curler from outside the box during their recent U-17 EURO group stage play against France. Italy U-17.

Nwaneri played impressively in the Arsenal youth team and the England U-17 team.

Charles Sagoe Jr

After a string of impressive performances for the Arsenal U-21 team, Charles Sagoe Jr. started the 2023/24 season by being called up to the first team and starting the first match against Brentford in the Carabao Cup.

After that, the 19-year-old was expected to play more in the Championship for Swansea City on loan, but things did not go as planned when he only made two appearances. However, Sangoe Jr. will still have the opportunity to show off his talent with Arteta during the summer tour before deciding whether he will keep the first team or have to continue being loaned to another team.

Amario Cozier-Duberry

 

 

Amario Cozier-Duberry possesses excellent speed, skillful technique and accurate scoring ability, helping him make a good impression on many fans early on.

Although not on par with Bukayo Saka, with Arsenal lacking depth and especially speed in the forward line, Arteta can consider including Cozier-Duberry in his pre-season plans. A successful pre-season tour could open up many opportunities for the first team in the future for one of England’s most exciting young talents.

Cozier-Duberry is highly regarded.

Myles Lewis-Skelly

Myles Lewis-Skelly is one of the many talented young players at Arsenal that everyone is talking about. The defensive midfielder can dribble the ball strongly while also skillfully retaining and gaining control of the ball.

In Arsenal U-21’s EFL Trophy match against Cambridge, the midfielder was compared to the first team’s Declan Rice when he brought the ball from inside his own half to the edge of the opponent’s box before passing the ball to Nwaneri to score. So Arteta will definitely keep an eye on the 17-year-old this summer.

Charlie Patino

There will be many Arsenal fans who expect Charlie Patino to soon become a star in the first team. The 20-year-old midfielder has impressive technique and passing ability, sharing many similarities with Cesc Fabregas and Jack Wilshere.

Although he impressed at Blackpool in the 22/23 season, contributing 6 goals in 33 Championship matches, Patino did not feature regularly during his loan spell at Swansea City the following season.

Charlie Patino does not play regularly at Swansea.

His career seems to have slowed down somewhat but perhaps Arteta needs to consider Patino’s situation this summer before deciding whether or not to allow him to leave Emirates Stadium given the interest of Juventus and AS Roma.
