Overview
- Multiple outlets report Arsenal are now willing to listen to summer offers for 19-year-old Ethan Nwaneri, with no formal bids disclosed.
- Chelsea are said to be tracking the situation, with Borussia Dortmund, Juventus and AC Milan also monitoring the player.
- Nwaneri’s loan at Marseille has been a rough spell, with two goals and one assist in 11 games and public criticism from coach Habib Beye after Roberto De Zerbi’s February exit changed the setup he joined for.
- Fabrizio Romano has said Arsenal still express full confidence in Nwaneri and plan to reassess his role after the season, and the player is under contract until 2030.
- A sale near £35–40m would count as ‘pure profit’ because he is a homegrown academy graduate, which helps clubs meet Premier League spending rules that track losses over set periods.
