Emile Smith Rowe has been rewarded with a new contract after he impressed in pre-season.
Arsenal youngster Emile Smith Rowe has signed a new contract with the club after his impressive performance during pre-season.
The youngster marked his debut for the first team with a goal in the International Champions Cup (ICC) game against Atletico Madrid.
In his second game against Paris Saint-Germain which ended 5-1 in favour of the Gunners, Rowe impressed again after he was brought in for Mesut Ozil.
Arsenal revealed that the club have tied down the youngster to a professional contract to ward off potential suitors through a post on their official Twitter account.
The message said, “A new pro contract for @emilesmithrowe! Congratulations #ESR.”
Speaking to the club’s official website, Rowe stated that he decided to re-sign for the club because of the new Arsenal manager Unai Emery.
He said, “To be honest it feels great for me. This is something I have always dreamt of since I was young.
“I think knowing how Arsenal play and knowing the background of the club... it's something I really look up to.
“And the new manager really inspires me, so hopefully I can just get chances in the first team to prove how good I am.”
The youngster is expected to feature in Arsenal’s next big clash against Chelsea as they continue preparations for the new season.
