It took everything I had not to put him as the top overall prospect. He was beat out by the narrowest of margins. Reine-Adelaide looked absolutely studly and completely unlike a raw 17 year old against Wolfsburg for the Gunners.

He looked so wonderful, in fact, that Arsene Wenger has vouched for the young Frenchman’s potential ability to make the first team. He spoke about not sending him out on loan, saying via NBC Sports: “He is 17 years old and looks very promising, but he needs to work with us now for a year with the first team, to play with the U21s and develop. There is a fantastic potential there and he will stay with us.”

Again, no one enjoys their own youth system more than Arsene Wenger and this young man excites him to the point of Wenger wanting him on the first team as soon as possible. This kid is something special and we will be seeing him soon.
