UEFA Youth League: 16-year-old football star Max Downman will continue his stay at the Emirates Stadium, as he has signed a pre-contract agreement with Arsenal on Friday.

Downman will sign his first professional contract with the club when he turns 17 on New Year's Eve this year. Dowman made his debut for Arsenal’s U18 team at just 13 years of age and became the youngest player to register a goal in the UEFA Youth League when hitting the net in that competition aged 14.

“This means everything to my family. We all support Arsenal, and I really feel like I belong here. I’d like to thank all my coaches, teammates and, most importantly, my family and friends, who have got me to where I am today." Max said on signing the pre-contract, as quoted by Arsenal's official page.
