Currently on loan to OM, Ethan Nwaneri should theoretically return to Arsenal this summer. But the Gunners have another idea in mind. Under the noses of the Marseille leaders?
THE ESSENTIAL
- A loan to assert yourself: Arriving at OM in January 2026 to gain playing time against XXL competition at Arsenal, the young 19-year-old attacking midfielder proved decisive with 2 goals and 1 assist in 10 matches.
- A future far from Marseille: Despite his good performances on the Olympian right wing, OM will not be able to keep him; Arsenal plans to part with it permanently this summer to balance its finances.
- Le Borussia Dortmund in pole position: Renowned for polishing world nuggets, the German club wishes to recruit the English U21 international, whose sale (coupled with that of Lewis-Skelly) could bring in more than 100 million euros for the Gunners.
On January 22, Olympique de Marseille made headlines by loaning Ethan Nwaneri, Arsenal’s great hope. The Gunners, who still dream of a formidable Premier League / Champions League double, have a very competitive squad. The 19-year-old English U21 international attacking midfielder was almost forced to pack his bags to find playing time and continue his progress. And after?
Ethan Nwaneri from OM to Germany?
According to the latest information relayed by the BBC, Arsenal do not intend to repatriate Ethan Nwaneri during the next summer transfer window. But the one who has played on the right wing since his arrival at OM, estimated at 40 million euros by specialized sites, will not be able to stay in Ligue 1. Our colleagues reveal that the Germans Borussia Dortmund, renowned for training the greatest talents of tomorrow, Erling Haaland and Jude Bellingham at the head, are in the running.
The combined sales of Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly could bring Arsenal more than €100 million. This would allow the London giant to balance its finances and look to the future with serenity. In the space of 10 official matches with Marseille, Nwaneri has scored two goals and provided an assist. Will he be able to change dimension in the Bundesliga? Only the future will tell us.
