Arsenal Uncovers Promising Young Talent Outshining Trossard and Lewis-Skelly
While Arsenal’s Premier League title hopes have faded this season, the emergence of young talent has been a bright spot for the club. Two academy graduates in particular have made significant impressions – Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri.
Lewis-Skelly, 18, has seamlessly transitioned to first-team football, making 26 appearances across all competitions. His versatility and composure have earned him a place in the England senior squad. According to Transfermarkt, Lewis-Skelly’s market value has risen to around £23.5 million.
However, it’s 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri who has truly captured attention. The attacking midfielder has been a revelation, scoring 8 goals and providing 1 assist in just 1087 minutes of play. Nwaneri’s market value has skyrocketed to an estimated £46.2 million – nearly double that of Lewis-Skelly and £21 million more than established first-team player Leandro Trossard.
Nwaneri’s rapid rise demonstrates Arsenal’s continued ability to nurture world-class talent. While this season may not yield a trophy, the emergence of players like Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly provides hope for a bright future at the Emirates.
