Arsenal Youngster Given Transfer Lifeline as Fulham Miss Out: Report
Dortmund will cover his full salary as Arsenal keep the 19-year-old in their long-term plans and reject an option to buy, sources said.
- On Tuesday, Arsenal reached a verbal agreement to loan 19-year-old Ethan Nwaneri to Borussia Dortmund for the 2026/27 season, with the Bundesliga club covering his full salary.
- Dortmund identified the England U21 international as a replacement after summer signing Giannis Konstantelias suffered an ACL injury on his debut, aiming to provide regular playing time.
- Arsenal refused to include an option to buy, ensuring Nwaneri remains firmly in their long-term plans and prioritizing a temporary move to aid his development.
- With Bukayo Saka, Noni Madueke, and Max Dowman ahead of him in the pecking order, Nwaneri had not made a first-team appearance this season for Arsenal.
- Thriving in the Bundesliga could position the teenager to compete for a squad place under Mikel Arteta next summer, though he may first face Arsenal in the Champions League.
