Arsenal's super young super kid, 15 years old.

I've got underpants older than him.

Can’t sign a pro contract until he is 17
Wonder who is getting paid for his services

[Quicknick]

He got a penalty awarded, too. Good start.

Probably being really stupid here, but does he go to a proper school or will he be in their academy with the older lads? Just wondered what first day back after the summer hols would be like for him!

Private tutor after training at the ground. He’s got to dress in separate changing rooms due to being a child still.

Amazing talent we have here. He’ll be a starter for England very soon

Never mind a pro deal, he's not even eligible for a scholarship deal yet!

He's still on a schoolboy registration - in the same way any acedemy player is from the under 8's up!

I reckon he might have been washed more often.

I know the parent of a 10 yr old who plays for City
He is privately educated by City at a local private school and even if/when later rejected by City they will continue to pay the school fees until he completes his education

[wilks_bfc]

He could play for the u16 team I coach

[expoultryboy]

Should of let him take the penalty to break all records .

What about insurance against serious injury, can a minor be insured for playing professional football?

[AlargeClaret]

Absolutely incredible. He’ll only officially be able to earn the academy grand or less , though a talent like this will have alsorts of whistles and bells added . Sponsorship alone could huge and not age restricted . Presume he’s at the school Arsenal send their kids to ? Like City and Utd send kids to St Bede’s and MGS.

Let’s hope they don’t destroy him like Wiltshire.

Injuries seemed to destroy Wilshere. He was never off the treatment table.
