Arsenal have a great chance to add to their excellent young squad with another addition who is tipped to be a Premier League star in the future.

Chelsea have also been linked with bringing Decan Rice back to the club after releasing him when he was younger, and Paul Pogba signed for Manchester United in 2016 after leaving the club at the start of his career, so the acquisition of Eze would be in repetition to these type of deals.

Speaking on the Rising Ballers YouTube channel, Eze said: “Arsenal was probably the hardest[rejection].”

My dream was to play for them. Hearing them say ‘no’ at 13 was tough. I remember training after I got released, I couldn’t focus because I was crying.”

Fans have suggested Gabriel Martinelli as a potential striker option, which would leave a space open
