Arteta wants to build Nwaneri's career brick by brick but the teenager has already earned the respect and trust of his senior players

Mikel Arteta hailed Ethan Nwaneri after the teenager scored an historic goal in Arsenal's 3-0 demolition of Nottingham Forest as Martin Odegaard also starred.

Arsenal’s teenage prodigy Ethan Nwaneri made Premier League history, scoring his first top-flight goal in the Gunners’ 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest.

Ethan Nwaneri scored his first Premier League goal for Arsenal as Mikel Arteta’s side beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 to secure a first league win since October 5. Arsenal had the ball in the net after five minutes at the Emirates Stadium when Jurrien Timber bundled it home from a free-kick but Mikel Merino was judged to be offside from the initial header.
