Eddie Nketiah
Young striker Eddie Nketiah will wear Arsenal’s iconic number 14 shirt next season after signing a long-term contract, the Premier League club said on Saturday.
The 23-year-old joined Arsenal as a teenager and has made 92 first-team appearances, scoring 23 goals.
It was only last season, however, that Nketiah began to make a place in Arsenal’s attack his own, scoring five goals in his last eight Premier League appearances.
The contract is a reward for his form and handing him the number 14 shirt, the number worn by club great Thierry Henry, shows the faith manager Mikel Arteta has in him.
