Arsenal are trying to sign Ceadach O’Neill from Linfield.

That is according to Sunday Life Sport, which has rated the chances of Arsenal getting a deal done.

So, what has been reported about Arsenal and Ceadach O’Neill? Let’s take a look.

What’s the story?

Well, according to Sunday Life Sport, Arsenal are interested in signing Ceadach O’Neill from Linfield.

The report has claimed that Arsenal have already made an offer of £240,000 for O’Neill, although it has not been accepted yet.

Sunday Life Sport has reported that the 15-year-old midfielder is “destined to sign for Arsenal”.

The teenager made his debut for Linfield when he came off the bench against Ballymena United in the Northern Irish Premiership on Saturday.

Linfield won 4-0. They are now at the top of the Northern Irish Premiership Table with 43 points from 17 matches, two points clear of second-placed Larne, who have played 18 games.

Ceadach O’Neill is one for the future for Arsenal

In my opinion, Ceadach O’Neill is a player for the future for Arsenal. After all, he is only 15 now and is just starting his career.

I believe that if Arsenal signed the teenager now, then he would get into the club’s youth team and then have to rise through the ranks.

Arsenal have a very good academy who have produced some wonderful players in recent years.

In my view, if O’Neill went to Arsenal and did well in the youth teams, then he could get a chance to turn out for the senior side in the next three or four years.

Arsenal are aiming to win the Premier League title this season and are also looking to make an impact in the UEFA Champions League.

The Gunners, who won on Saturday, are at the top of the league table with 30 points from 13 matches, a point clear of second-placed and defending champions Manchester City.
