Serves as backup Nwaneri has scored one goal in three starts across all competitions as he continues to play a limited role with the team.

Impact Following last season's breakout campaign of nine goals and two assists in 37 matches (15 starts), Nwaneri has taken on a smaller role for Arsenal this season, serving as an unused substitute in seven games and starting only three matches across all competitions, With one coming in the Champions League and two in the FA Cup. The 18-year-old Arsenal academy product remains behind Eberechi Eze and Martin Odegaard in the attacking midfield role and hasn't started on the right wing, with coach Mikel Arteta preferring Bukayo Saka, Noni Madueke, and Gabriel Martinelli in that spot. His only goal this season came in his recent FA Cup appearance against Brighton.

AUGUST 8 • SKY.COM

Signs new Arsenal contract Nwaneri has signed a new five-year contract with Arsenal until the end of the 2029/30 campaign, the club announced Friday.

Impact Nwaneri enjoyed a breakout campaign in 2024/25 as a youngster, as he scored four times and added a pair of assists in 26 appearances (11 starts) in the Premier League. While he's not expected to be a regular starter, he should see plenty of minutes as a backup option who can play all over the attacking third.

AUGUST 8 • ROTOWIRE

Breakout campaign Nwaneri scored four times and added a pair of assists in 26 appearances (11 starts) in the Premier League.

Impact Nwaneri was likely to remain a depth and youth option for his third season with the senior club, but injuries in the attack pushed him into a big role. He didn't necessarily solve all of the issues Arsenal dealt with in the attack, but he was impressive in a limited role. Nwaneri likely did enough to remain a depth option even as the rest of the attack gets fit next season.

JUNE 3 • ROTOWIRE

Scores off bench Nwaneri found the back of the net late in Arsenal's 4-0 win over Ipswich Town on Sunday.

Impact The young winger has seen less action since Bukayo Saka's return, but made an impact even in limited minutes Sunday. There's a good chance Nwaneri sees more time against Crystal Palace Wednesday since it's a quick turnaround for Arsenal. Palace has conceded 10 goals over its last three matches, making this a good matchup for Nwaneri to take advantage of should he play.

Service machine Nwaneri tallied five crosses and seven corner kicks in Arsenal's 1-1 draw Saturday against Brentford.

Impact Despite plenty of service, Nwaneri only created one chance and only one of his crosses was considered accurate. The young winger has shown improvement and will get more run with the title race largely done, but likely remains on the bench in Wednesday's match against Real Madrid.

Tallies assist Nwaneri got an assist in Arsenal's 2-1 win over Fulham Tuesday, playing 66 minutes.

Impact The young winger has burst onto the scene due to injuries, and continued to be productive offensively with an assist on Arsenal's first goal. Nwaneri should be available off the bench Saturday against Everton, a side which has been playing well of late with four draws in a row entering Wednesday's game against Liverpool.

MARCH 31 • SKY.COM

Falls back to bench Nwaneri only appeared off the bench for 11 minutes in Sunday's 1-0 win over Chelsea.

Impact Nwaneri looks to have seen the end of his starting days for the time being, as he has only played a total of 11 minutes in their last two contests after starting in seven of their past eight games. This comes after the return of Gabriel Martinelli from injury, as he will likely work back into his starting role as Arsenal make a late push to end the season, with numerous other attackers returning soon and taking even more minutes. Nwaneri should still see time but in a much more limited role, with most of his time coming from off the bench in the future.

MARCH 20 • ROTOWIRE

Scores goal in large victory Nwaneri scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) and three crosses (one accurate) in Tuesday's 7-1 win versus PSV Eindhoven.

Impact Nwaneri started for the fourth straight match and the second time in the Champions League on Tuesday. The young forward scored his second career goal in the queen competition and set a season-high with four shots. He completed just six passes, highlighting his efficiency against PSV. He will look to contribute again in the second leg on Wednesday.
