One of the best youth academies in the world is at Arsenal. Reiss Nelson, Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah, and Bukayo Saka are just a few of the amazing alumni from Hale End’s recent past.
Some graduates do, however, find success elsewhere, and their names are listed beneath the pile of prosperous grads.
These players include Donyell Malen, Folarin Balogun, and Serge Gnabry; they were successful outside of Arsenal yet benefited from the academy’s knowledge.

Omari Benjamin has joined the group of athletes that look for success abroad. During his eight Premier League U18 outings for Arsenal this season, the 18-year-old has contributed an assist and three goals.

He will be released from the club at the end of the current campaign since his performances are insufficient to earn a professional contract at the Emirates Stadium.
Everton is prepared to extend an offer to Omari Benjamin for his first professional contract, according to a recent report by Football Insider.
Benjamin reportedly spent some time on trial in Merseyside, impressing Everton officials to the point where they decided to put in a bid.
If Benjamin signs with Everton, he will be joining Alex Iwobi, a fellow Hale End alumnus who had a fantastic stint in the Arsenal first team prior to joining Everton. The Nigerian international, who hasn’t made his first senior appearance yet, could undoubtedly impart some knowledge to Benjamin.
Ten players who left Arsenal and improved afterwards were recently used by Pain in the Arsenal.
Benjamin may or may not make this list, but he is undoubtedly displaying the makings of a legitimate goal scorer.
Benjamin would provide Sean Dyche with a flexible option for Everton as he is a talented striker with wing experience.
