Rio Ferdinand has heaped praise on Arsenal record-breaker Ethan Nwaneri, by saying he could be the Gunners' answer to Man City star Phil Foden.
Nwaneri became the youngest player in Premier League history during Arsenal's 3-0 win over Brentford on Sunday.
At 15 years, 5 months, and 28 days, Nwaneri beat the record previously held by Harvey Elliott when he appeared as an injury-time sub for Fabio Vieira.
