Official : Goal-scoring defender signs new deal at Arsenal
Published: April 29, 2023With a statement on their official website, Premier League table toppers Arsenal have announced that Michal Rosiak has signed a new deal with the club.
Without disclosing the duration of the contract, the Gunners confirmed that the Poland U18 international has put pen to paper on his first professional contract.
Rosiak has been a key member of the Arsenal U18s side this season, helping them reach the final of the prestigious FA Youth Cup.
The 17-year-old is a goal-scoring right-back, having mustered seven goals in all competitions this season while providing six assists in fifteen appearances combined in the FA Youth Cup and U18 Premier League.
In his first words after the new deal was confirmed, Rosiak stated : "Signing my first professional contract for Arsenal means everything to me, it’s pretty amazing.
"Playing for the club I’ve always loved and watched growing up, hopefully it will be the first of many contracts."
Before turning professional, Rosiak started the 2022-2023 season as a first year scholar - an intake that also included Nigerian goalkeeper Brian Okonkwo.
Rosiak, who joined Arsenal at U12 level, is also comfortable playing as a midfielder.
