Nwaneri, who debuted in the Premier League at just 15, showcased his potential with a remarkable performance and goal in Arsenal’s 3-0 Carabao Cup win over Preston North End.

Calls for more minutes for the young talent have grown, but Vieira, a former Arsenal captain, believes the current approach to Nwaneri’s development is prudent.

Vieira remarked on the competition Nwaneri faces, citing established players like Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka, and Leandro Trossard.

He emphasized the importance of not overloading the teenager despite the desire for more first-team appearances, praising his technical skills, creativity, and composure under pressure.

Arteta echoed Vieira’s sentiment, lauding Nwaneri’s talent and commitment while affirming that the young midfielder is progressing at the right pace.

Arteta described Nwaneri as “a big talent” with a strong work ethic, noting the respect he commands from teammates who consistently seek him out on the pitch.

With Arsenal preparing for their upcoming Premier League clash against Newcastle, Arteta and Vieira’s careful management may be key to ensuring Nwaneri reaches his full potential in an Arsenal shirt.
