Image
Arsenal’s meticulous transfer strategy could once again lead them into Germany’s talent pool, as reports suggest the North London club are eyeing Eintracht Frankfurt’s rising full-back Nathaniel Brown . The 22-year-old, currently valued at €60 million (£52m) , has emerged as one of the Bundesliga’s most versatile and technically gifted defenders — and while a deal is far from simple, Mikel Arteta is believed to be keeping close tabs on his development. According to Fichajes , Arsenal are one of several European powerhouses monitoring Brown’s situation, with Real Madrid and Manchester City also expressing interest. The Gunners, who have rebuilt their squad on youth, tactical adaptability, and elite athleticism, see Brown as a player who fits their long-term project. A Defender with a Modern Edge Nathaniel Brown’s rise in the Bundesliga has been rapid and well-earned. Standing out for his composure under pressure and ability to glide past opponents, the young German has earned pla...

Ethan Nwaneri Commits Long-Term to Arsenal


Arsenal have officially confirmed that Ethan Nwaneri has signed a new long-term contract, reportedly spanning five years and tying him to the club until 2030. The standout Academy product, who broke into the first team last season, has firmly committed his future to the Gunners.

The deal comes on the back of a breakthrough 2024/25 campaign, during which Nwaneri made 37 appearances, found the net nine times, and added two assists in all competitions. His versatility playing as both a central midfielder and on the right flank earned him praise and strengthened his case for a regular spot this season.

Reports suggest the new contract comes with a significant pay rise and enhanced assurances regarding his developmental pathway, particularly amid growing squad competition. Arsenal are clearly planning to integrate Nwaneri as a core part of their midfield rotation alongside players like Ødegaard and Madueke.

Nwaneri’s rise and renewed commitment have not gone unnoticed - interest from clubs like Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund has reportedly been sidelined as the 18-year-old opted to stay and grow at Arsenal.

His contract kicks off amid a busy summer window for Arsenal, who have already strengthened their roster with Alvaro Morata, Viktor Gyökeres, Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, and Christian Nørgaard. Nwaneri’s long-term deal ensures the team keeps its promising homegrown core intact.

With the new season looming, all eyes will be on whether Nwaneri’s progression continues. His commitment provides stability in Arsenal’s midfield, and fans will be eager to see how quickly he can make the leap from impact substitute to consistent starter.

Wojciech Szczęsny: The Goalkeeper Who Could Stop Shots and Play Symphonies

Image
When people talk about footballers and hidden talents, they usually mean a knack for golf, table tennis, or perhaps video gaming. But in the case of Arsenal’s former goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny, it’s something entirely different: music. 🎶 Yes, the tall, outspoken Polish goalkeeper who became Arsenal’s No. 1 as a teenager is also a gifted pianist. His ability behind the keys is so remarkable that he has played at weddings, dazzled teammates with impromptu performances, and even left fans stunned when clips of his playing surfaced online. But Szczęsny’s story is not just about football or music—it’s about a larger-than-life character whose time at Arsenal was as chaotic as it was memorable.
