Arsenal offer new deal to teenage midfielder of Nigerian descent
Published: November 16, 2022Arsenal have reportedly offered a new deal to teenage midfielder of Nigerian descent Zach Schuaib ahead of next season.
According to Arsenal youth team expert Jeorge Bird, Schuaib has been offered a scholarship deal and will be part of the Gunners' intake for the 2023-2024 season if he accepts the offer.
All U17 players are required to sign scholarship forms with their respective clubs before signing their first professional contracts on or after their seventeenth birthday.
