Arsenal has a strong tradition of developing young talents, whether through their academy with players like Ethan Nwaneri, Emile Smith Rowe, and Bukayo Saka, or by recruiting promising prospects such as Cesc Fàbregas and Gabriel Martinelli. A core aspect of the club’s philosophy is nurturing future superstars rather than relying solely on big-money signings.
It’s no surprise that Arsenal is now linked with another exciting young talent, this time an 18-year-old from São Paulo, Brazil, named William Gomes, who has drawn comparisons to Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal. According to a report from *Caught Offside*, Arsenal and Chelsea have both sent scouts to observe Gomes, receiving positive feedback on his performances.
