The 17-year-old is a pacey forward who can play anywhere across the frontline. He was a regular choice in the youth team last season, scoring twice in 15 appearances whilst still being a schoolboy.

Akpom signed his professional contract with Arsenal on his 17th birthday. The teenager featured in the pre-season tour of Asia as he came off the bench to score the winner as the Gunners completed an unbeaten tour of Southeast with a 2-1 win against Japanese side Urawa Red.
