England‑Zambia winger Jeremy Monga of Leicester is being linked with a move to Arsenal as the Premier League club monitor the highly rated 16‑year‑old.
The Leicester City left‑sided attacker, born in Coventry and eligible for both England and Zambia, is viewed as one of the most exciting wide prospects in the Championship. According to data from Transfermarkt, Monga currently has a market value of €15.00m, underlining the scale of Arsenal’s potential investment in a player who only turned 16 on 10 July 2009.
Monga, who is listed as an attacking left winger and prefers to operate off the left despite being right‑footed, wears the No 28 shirt for Leicester. He is already recorded as part of the club’s first‑team set‑up, with his “national team” entry given as Leicester City rather than a recognised senior international side. His current deal at the King Power Stadium has no publicly available expiry date, meaning there is no confirmation that his contract is close to running down or that he is set to become a free agent.
The rumour, logged on 3 June 2026 with the move probability described simply as “?”, places Arsenal as the leading name among potential suitors. No transfer fee has been agreed and no formal bid is recorded, but the north London club are said to be tracking his development closely as they weigh whether to move for him while he is still a teenager.
Leicester, currently in the Championship, have increasingly relied on their academy and younger talents in recent seasons, and Monga’s rapid elevation reflects that trend. Standing at 1.79m, he offers a blend of size and speed on the flank and is capable of driving inside onto his stronger right foot. His profile – dual nationality, homegrown status and attacking versatility – fits the kind of recruitment many Premier League clubs have pursued in recent years.
Recent data lists Monga as playing predominantly on the left of a front line, though detailed senior match statistics, such as goals and assists, are not provided in the figures available. Specific recent match information – including opponent, date, scoreline and an assessment of Monga’s individual performance – is not recorded in the current dataset and therefore cannot be verified.
With no clear contract end date published, there is no immediate indication that Monga is approaching a “contract expired” situation or that he could leave Leicester as a free agent. However, his rising valuation and the attention of a club of Arsenal’s stature are likely to intensify discussions around his long‑term future and any potential renewal at the King Power.
For Arsenal, any move would be seen as a long‑term project rather than a first‑team solution, given the player’s age. For Monga, a transfer to the Premier League – if it materialises – would mark a significant step in a career still in its infancy, potentially shaping not only his club trajectory but also his international prospects with England or Zambia in the years ahead.
