Arsenal Under 16 youngsters Jeffrey Monakana, Alie Sesay and Jemal Wiseman were among a handful of the best young prospects from some of the most famous Academy’s in the country who took part in a ‘party in the park’ style tournament last weekend.
Rapid winger Monakana, classy midfielder Wiseman and powerful centre back Sesay represented the Gunners in a street style tournament which tested the technical skills of each team. With each side having a small pitch in which to operate, using tricks and skills are essential to get forward to try and score.
The likes of Chelsea, Bolton Wanderers, Reading and Southend United all took part in the unofficial tournament, which took part in London.
There was not an actual winner, but Arsenal performed well. The silky Monakana and Wiseman scored in abundance and look real exciting prospects for the future. Sesay will be eligible for a scholarship next summer and he’ll find out whether he will win one just after Christmas.
This competition has only proved that there is another bunch of very exciting youngsters who we will surely see much more off in the next 12 months.
