Find out more about Arsenal’s ’secret stars’ Chuks Aneke and Jordan Wynter

Today you can enjoy two more player profiles here on Jeorge Bird’s Arsenal Youth.

One of the secret stars of the Arsenal Academy, Chuks will be looking to make a big impression at London Colney during his first year as a scholar.

An agressive, steely presence in front of the back four; Chuks also possesses the ability to link well with the attack and can get forward well on ocassions.

After steadily rising through the ranks at Hale End, Chuks made his debut for the u-18s as a starter in the 1-0 victory over Ipswich. Despite being one of the youngest players on the field, he was not fazed by the occasion and hurtled into challenges with drive and desire.

He was substituted that day after one too many over-zealous challenges, but returned in the latter part of the season to become something of an extra dimension for Bould’s side.

His physique and style have led to many describing him as ‘a basketball player’ and he has stated that he is happy playing as either an attacking or defensive central-midfielder.

Modelling himself on Gunners legend Patrick Vieira, Chuks also likes to weigh in with his fair share of goals and opened his account for the u-18s during the trip to Birmingham.

Chuks, who has been capped by England at both u-16 and u-17 levels, could develop into a key player for Steve Bould’s side over the coming months.

Versatile and physically imposing, Jordan broke into the u-18s last season, making three appearances for Steve Bould’s side.

Normally a centre-back, he impressed on the right-wing at times and also looked composed in central-midfield.

Having joined Arsenal as an eight-year-0ld, Jordan has developed into one of the most technically gifted talents at the Academy, although his positional sense does still need some work.

Jordan will be looking to push into the u-18s on a more regular basis this campaign with the ulitmate aim of gaining a scholarship at London Colney.
