Ethan Nwaneri will become a major star for England as well as Arsenal, according to headteacher Alexander Tardios

Tardios, Nwaneri’s head teacher at St John’s School in Enfield didn’t hold back with his praise for the Premier League’s youngest ever player.

The Arsenal prodigy became the Premier League’s youngest- ever player, at 15 years and 181 days, when he came on in Sunday’s 3-0 win at Brentford.

The headteacher revealed that it took Nwaneri just EIGHT MINUTES to secure a scholarship as a ten-year-old.

Tardios said: “He’s skillful, powerful, fast, and humble.

“Really, Arsenal has something special. And I will go further — England have something special as he gets older.

“I would make a comparison with Cesc Fabregas, I would definitely make a comparison with Jack Wilshere because he’s got that skill and natural ability.

“The first time I saw him was at the school academy trial day and we had a football pitch that was full of academy players from football clubs.

“You’re looking for that talent that might just about stand out.

“But Ethan was head and shoulders above the other children, he was just passing them as if they weren’t there.

“We had to take him off because no other player could touch the ball and he got his full scholarship within eight minutes.

“I then texted someone with a lot of knowledge about football and said, ‘Do you know someone called Ethan Nwaneri?’

“And his simple text to me was, ‘Yes, he’s spectacular.”
