Ethan Nwaneri is setting his sights on more than just minutes, he wants to shape matches, dictate tempo, and find the net consistently as he looks to break through at Arsenal.
The teenage talent has impressed with his versatility, often slotting into various roles without fuss. While naturally a midfielder, Nwaneri has been deployed in advanced positions and embraces the challenge. “You can see sometimes I’m a natural midfielder. But I think if the manager wants you to play in a position, you have to do it to the best of your abilities,” he said.
His mindset remains team-first, but his personal ambitions are clear. “I want to play forward. I want to be a positive player, one who affects the game, who can control the game, who scores goals. I think that’s just my game.”
With an eye on pre-season and continued development, Nwaneri is focused on refining his defensive duties and building his physical strength. He remains confident that, with hard work, his game will rise to meet Premier League demands.
