Arsenal wonderkid set to sign new long-term deal

Arsenal wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri is set to sign a new long-term contract with a significant payrise, according to Daily Mail.

The 18-year-old has had a fantastic breakthrough season with the Gunners. He has stepped up in Bukayo Saka's injury absence in recent months.

Nwaneri has been involved in nine goals for the London giants thus far and he is expected to be rewarded with a new long-term contract soon.

The Gunners have already agreed terms with the talented attacker and he could put pen-to-paper on the improved deal after the interlul.

Arsenal entertain Fulham in the Premier League next month. The club are 12 points behind league leaders Liverpool, but need to keep up the pressure.

The Reds have faltered with back-to-back losses in all competitions. Arsenal must win their remaining league games to capitalise on any setbacks for the Merseyside outfit.

The Gunners also have the Champions League to play for. They are scheduled to face Real Madrid in a double-legged quarter-final.
