Arsenal Offer Contracts To Three Prospects

Arsenal have moved to secure the services of three of the club’s most promising Under 16’s this week by offering them scholarship terms three months early.

Zach Fagan, Anthony Jeffrey and Isaac Hayden have all been offered deals while German Under 16 midfielder Serge Gnabry will sign scholarship forms when he completes his move from Stuttgart in July. The three are as yet the only youngsters who have had their futures secured, while a selection of others have had a decision put on hold.

Those who are waiting on that important call include goalkeeper Billy Duval, plus midfielders Jamal Wiseman, Alfred Martin and Jordan Palmer-Samuels. However, some have already been tolod they are feel to leave. Timothy Monsheju and Lewis Kinsella are just two of those, with the latter featuring for Chelsea’s Under 18’s this morning.

Arsenal announced 13 new scholars last year, but it seems certain the number of those getting signed this year will be dramatically less.

      He has a broken leg. He’ll play U-18s when he gets back most likely.

    How good is Kyle Young?

    The only player still waiting for a decision is Billy Duval, the others have been released unfortunately. Really thought Jemal would make it.

    Why are we letting players go so early? Who will play in our u16s the rest of the year? The u15s??

    With £50 million profit this year & similar for the next 2/3 years predicted, a very strong (young) reserve team now sitting behind the first team, perhaps the way forward will not now be SO focused on the youth team players, well in as much as holding onto players that will NOT make any headway into the first team long term anyway?

    This is Arsene’s system. Bring up the studs and sell or release those surplus to requirements. We have seen that with Justin Hoyte and Luke Ayling. Get ready for a lot more. We can’t graduate five players every year into the first team but rather one or two really standout players.

    This system will save Arsenal money and provide greater players.
