Young Sierra Leonean Midfielder, Joshua Sesay Signs for Arsenal

October 4, 2024

A young football talent from Sierra Leone, Joshua Sesay, has officially signed with Arsenal Football Club in England. Sesay will begin his journey at Arsenal’s academy, with hopes of advancing to the first team in the coming years.

The under-15 midfielder, known for his versatility as a winger, has gained attention for his ability to play effectively on both flanks. His standout performances during the under-15 Floodlit Cup last season, where Millwall defeated both Arsenal and Chelsea, highlighted his potential. Sesay played a crucial role in Millwall’s success, which eventually earned him a spot at Arsenal.

This move is seen as a significant acquisition for Arsenal’s Hale End academy, as Sesay is regarded as one of the most promising young talents in the country. Despite Millwall’s success in developing young players, they have now lost one of their brightest prospects to the Premier League club. Sesay will join Arsenal’s U15 team as he embarks on his journey toward a professional career in football.
