Arsenal superkid Ethan Nwaneri could commit his international future to play for the Super Eagles of Nigeria, reports BSNSports.com.ng

Nwaneri, made headlines when he became the youngest player ever to play in the Premier League at 15 years and 181 days old, as Arsenal gunned down Brentford on Sunday, September 18.

The previous record for the youngest player to feature in the English Premiership was held by Harvey Elliot of Liverpool who appeared for Fulham at the age of 16 years and 30 days.

According to TribalFootball of the Uk, Football Agents are scrambling to sign Nwaneri, as he's also set to field an approach from the Nigerian FA, despite being an England youth international.

Big name agents are keen to snap him up and so far his family have done a superb job in guiding his reports in Nigeria suggest the Super Eagles are also chasing him as he is eligible through his father Obi Nwaneri.

Gunners chiefs insist the teen earned his chance on merit but there can be no mistaking that Arsenal does want to keep him and tie him down for the long term.
