December 2025
Arsenal have agreed future deals to sign Ecuadorian twins Edwin and Holger Quintero from Independiente del Valle, confirming the 16-year-olds will officially join in August 2027 when they turn 18 as part of the club’s aggressive push to secure elite teenage talent early. The Gunners beat major European rivals after tracking the pair for over a year, with winger Edwin likened to a young Neymar and playmaker Holger seen as a creative No.10, pointing to the pathway blazed by Nwaneri, Lewis-Skelly and Dowman as proof of opportunity.
