Arsenal wonderkid Chido Obi-Martin has now sent a message to his fellow prodigy Max Dowman.
Both teenagers look set to have very bright futures at the Emirates Stadium, having already trained with Arsenal stars at London Colney.
That is despite the fact Max Dowman is only 14 years of age, while Chido Obi-Martin is just 16.
Now, the latter has sent his friend a message after his appearance in Arsenal training made headlines…

Well, there is clearly a lot of love between Obi-Martin and Dowman, who could well become Arsenal’s next version of Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe.

The pair are having exceptional campaigns, to say the least.
Obi-Martin has remarkably scored 28 goals in just 16 appearances in the U18 Premier League this season, which is a quite incredible return in all honesty.
The 16-year-old even scored seven goals in one game, while also netting five in a single match, and four on two occasions.
However, the spotlight is currently on Dowman following Mikel Arteta’s decision to draft him into training at the age of just 14, after he racked up five appearances in the U18 Premier League this season.

Impressively, the England U16 international scored once and provided four assists in those five games.
After seeing his pal alongside the likes of Saka, Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice at London Colney, Obi-Martin wrote “❤️” in the comments section of Dowman’s Instagram post.

Arsenal must nurture precocious trio
Arsenal own another exceptional talent alongside Obi-Martin and Dowman in Ethan Nwaneri, three prospects who are simply too good to ignore.
Amid the pressure of a title race, Arteta is unlikely to be in any mood to take risks, so it would be wise of Arsenal to find loan moves for the talented trio in the near future, or else the Gunners risk stunting their development.
Hopefully, all three can become significant players for Arsenal one day – they certainly have the ability to do so.
