Walters, a standout in the Gunners’ youth system, boasts an impressive record with 47 appearances for the U21s, 20 for the U18s, and 13 on the bench for Mikel Arteta’s first team. Which makes it clear that the Spaniard, sees great potential in the young Englishman, acquired from Romanian club Chindia Targoviste.
Despite his relatively unknown status among Arsenal fans, Walters, a versatile defender capable of playing as a left and right-sided center-back, as well as a right back, drew attention during the club’s preseason tour of 2023.
Amid inquiries from several European clubs, the North London outfit are keen on securing Walters’ services beyond the expiration of his contract in the summer of 2024. The club recognizes his value and would prefer not to see him depart without a substantial deal.
The young Englishman demonstrated exceptional maturity during the preseason tour, showcasing his skills in ball distribution, ball retention, and forward ball-carrying.
Alongside Walters, Arteta has also included talents like Lino Souza, Ethan Nwaneri, and Myles Lewis-Skelly in the squad for the midweek Champions League fixture.
With qualification to the round of 16 already secured, these Arsenal youngsters are eager to shine on the grand stage of club football: the Champions League.
Walters, in particular, is poised to make a significant impact as he steps onto the field for his debut.
