Arsenal have managed to convince Ethan Nwaneri to sign a new deal with them.

Under pressure from Manchester City and Chelsea, Arsenal have reached an agreement with the teen and his family.

Nwaneri made his debut as a 15 year-old last season, a record for the Premier League.

The London Evening Standard says with his schoolboy deal to expire today, Nwaneri is now ready to sign a scholarship contract.

It will mean Nwaneri will be clear to sign a pro contract with Arsenal in a year's time.
