Arsenal weigh up 15-year-old Dowman for Carabao Cup clash with Brighton
Arsenal are weighing a start for 15-year-old Max Dowman in the Carabao Cup.
Indeed, Arteta said he is tempted to start him against Brighton.
Dowman has already appeared in two Premier League games this August.
Moreover, he impressed as a sensation in pre-season.
Dowman was a substitute in the Carabao Cup at Port Vale on September 24.
As with Ethan Nwaneri, Arsenal have mapped his progress.
Nwaneri could also feature against Brighton this week.
Dowman was an unused substitute in last week’s Champions League win over Athletic Bilbao.
TLDR:
- Arteta may throw Dowman into a high pressure cup tie against Brighton
- The 15-year-old has already trained with first team and impressed in preseason
- Nwaneri is also in the mix as Arsenal balance youth and experience
