Arsenal confident of beating Chelsea, Liverpool and Man United to midfield signing

With the current season coming to a close fairly soon, most, if not all Premier League sides are on the lookout for some fresh faces to bring in over the summer and Arsenal are no exception. It seems that manager Arsene Wenger is hopeful of securing the services of 16-year-old Ethan Ampadu, who has been tipped for a very bright future.

Dan Gibbs of the Express reports that a number of clubs such as Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea, as well as the Gunners have been watching the starlet this season but it appears that Arsenal have taken the lead in the race for his signature.

Ampadu has already been capped for both the Wales and England youth teams and looks set to make a big impression on the football world.

His father, Kwame Ampadu is already a youth coach with the north London side which may work in the Gunners favour in their attempts to lure the youngster to the Emirates.

Despite this, however, the player has already claimed that he wishes to see out his studies with League Two side Exeter, but with the big clubs sniffing around, Ampadu may very well be given an offer he can’t refuse.
