The reigning World FIFA U17 Most Valuable Player, Kelechi Nwakali has finally penned a deal with the Gunners after he turned 18 some days ago. Arsenal coach, Arsene Wenger has granted Nwakali's request for Jersey number 25 after the starlet's ambition of succeeding his countryman, Kanu Nwakwo who wore the number during his playing days at the Emirates Stadium.

Nwakali however said he can't wait to start with the Arsenal senior team during the pre-season games just as Iheanacho was tested during Manchester City's pre-season matches.

Congrat bro but you made a wrong choice,Arsenal isn't the best club to be
CHELSEA IS

Hmmmm team man utd

Arsenal FC love cheap players, I guess that's why they love signing Nigerians. Most times, they are after visa, not even money.

The poster above me has nothing good to say about the youngster. Stop hating

Nice one. Arsene Wenger signed Kanu 17 years ago, 2016 he is still the manager! His "charm" is first grade!

God bless Nnamdi Nwankwo kanu
