Arsenal are preparing a stunning double transfer raid that could see them land both Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze and secure the long-term future of teenage sensation Ethan Nwaneri.
The Gunners have identified Eze as a prime summer target, with Mikel Arteta keen to add more creativity to his midfield options. The 25-year-old England international has been in sparkling form for Palace this season, attracting attention from several top clubs.
Nwaneri's Record-Breaking Future
Meanwhile, Arsenal are working hard to tie down 16-year-old wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri to his first professional contract. The midfielder made history last season when he became the youngest ever Premier League player at just 15 years and 181 days old.
Sources close to the club suggest negotiations with Nwaneri's representatives are progressing well, with the player said to be excited by Arteta's project and the clear pathway to first-team football at the Emirates.
Eze's Potential Impact
Eberechi Eze's potential arrival would add another dimension to Arsenal's attacking options. The skilful midfielder has contributed 6 goals and 3 assists this campaign, showcasing the kind of flair and end product that could thrive in Arteta's system.
While Palace will be reluctant to sell their star man, Arsenal's Champions League status and ambitious project could prove persuasive in any potential negotiations.
This double move demonstrates Arsenal's dual transfer strategy - blending established Premier League quality with the continued development of their most promising academy talents.
