Ethiopian coach wants Gedion Zelalem


Ethiopia national team manager Sewnet Bishaw has insisted that he would like Arsenal youngster Gedion Zelalem to commit his international future to the African nation.

The 16-year-old starlet who was born in Germany, qualifies to play for Ethiopia as both of his parents were born in the African nation.


"If he decides to play for us, then things will be easy," Sewnet Bishaw said.


Zelalem featured for the Gunners senior side during the club's pre-season tour to Asia during the summer, and had a great outing, as he was branded as the ' new Cesc Fabregas' of Arsenal
