The six stars of the Arsenal Academy should benefit from the promotion of the first team of Freddie Ljungberg

An appointment at Arsenal this summer will certainly excite the fans.

football.londres understands that Freddie Ljungberg, who has coached U23s this season, will be the badistant head coach alongside Juan Carlos Carcedo for Unai Emery in the first team.

The idea is to bridge the gap between the Arsenal Academy and the senior team.

Ljungberg's work with the under-23s has earned him much admiration in the Arsenal hierarchy. The Swede impressed the highest personalities with his tactical variety and his sense of interpersonal relations with his young players.

As football.londres reported last month, The Gunners are keen to promote the 42-year-old player for some time and this appointment should give hope to some of the club's most promising players.

While Reiss Nelson and perhaps Emile Smith Rowe could be involved next season, we take a look at five other young Arsenal players ready to thrive while the Swede is preparing to play the role of first team coach.

Eddie Nketiah

Nketiah has reached the stage where football under 23 is not demanding enough for him, but is not yet ready to start in front of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang or Alexandre Lacazette in the first team for the moment.

That said, Emery has blocked a loan application for the young striker in the January transfer window, which suggests more playing time in the second half of the season.

But that never materialized, even though Nketiah ended the campaign by scoring his first goal in the Premier League.

Maybe it's a sign of things to come and Ljungberg is definitely an admirer of the young man who recommended him for a lead role in a Europa League playoff match.

What Ljungberg said: "If he gets the call, he is ready to play without asking any questions – it all depends on the manager." I always thought we had players willing to do well, but that came down to the first team.

"All I can do is advise and try to prepare the players as close as possible." It's important for Eddie to play games.As an attacker, you can not train only because you want to have that feeling of putting yourself in the right place at the right time to score.

"That's why I think it was important for Eddie to play so he's ready when he gets a chance in the first team." He needs games, as an attacker he always has need to play. "

Xavier Amaechi

It promises to be a great summer for Amaechi.

Football.londres understands that the club is more likely not to sign a new contract after Emery has shunned the winger of his last bench of the Europa League.

The teenager, sought by Bayern Munich as well as many clubs in La Liga, went to Baku for the clash against Chelsea but was surprisingly the only player not to go on the bench.

We can badume that with a year to go, Amaechi would like to have badurances about the chances of the first team next season and that is where Ljungberg could play a key role.

The Swede trusted the winger who was out of action for nearly three months early in the season, making his team a highly rated youth as soon as he was in top form and made the Praise of the talent of the interviews.

What Ljungberg said: He is a very good player, but he has to work because he has unfortunately missed a few months of football.

"We are happy to find a winger, but also for individual development and what we are trying to do here.

"Of course, it's great to find someone who can play in this wing position, it's a great talent, so I was sad for him that he was hurt so long."

Bukayo Saka

Saka was the first player to make his Arsenal debut in the Premier League the same year, while he signed a scholarship contract since Jack Wilshere in the 2008-09 season, a rich reward for his remarkable progress in the ranks of the youth of Hale End.

He has made some appearances in first team this season and with the Gunners, who have few natural players, there is a good chance that Ljungberg recommends the teenager to multiply the opportunities next season.

What Ljungberg said: "He was supposed to play U18 this season and I think, sorry to say, he was better than that.

"He's a modest kid, he works very hard every day in training, sometimes with the first team and sometimes with us, he just needs to keep working, his time will come."

"The only thing we have to look at, sometimes, is that it's only 17 years old."

Daniel Ballard

Arsenal and Emery are looking for a new central advocate, but some promising academies could save them money. Zech Medley played this season, while Ballard earned a spot in the senior team of Northern Ireland.

The leadership qualities of the latter were widely admired during the 17-18 final of the Arsenal Youth Cup until the finals of the German Cup. He has been a U23 regular in Ljungberg this season, winning his first professional contract.

Ballard spoke of his progress under the direction of the Swede, so he may be watching.

"He still wants the defenders on the right foot and very aggressive, so I think that's part of my strength," Ballard said. "This gives you the courage to go on the front foot, to intervene to win balloons and, of course, you have to be very comfortable with the ball, which is what I'm going to do. worked.

"There are two games in the game with him, so I really like playing under him."

Joe Willock

One of the few players to come out of the final defeat of the Europa League with no credit. The midfielder almost completed an impressive appearance with a goal and, in truth, he probably should have scored.

But where the other quartet could benefit from Ljungberg's promotion by getting more first-team opportunities at Arsenal next season, Willock could have regular games under his belt elsewhere.

What Ljungberg said: "It's up to the first team to decide where they want it from, they need reinforcement for their players if injuries happen."

"I think he's always learning things when he's playing here, so maybe we have more technical and tactical things to teach him … he's going on loan, there will be more men's football, so different things to learn.

"The most important thing when you're on loan, is that you're in the right club, that they play the football we want to play in. It's not up to me to decide It's lent, it's up to the big boys above me. "

Ljungberg also seems to have high hopes among the five players mentioned Tyreece John-Jules.

"TJ has always been a very good football player and we try to use it a bit more in the game," Ljungberg told Arsenal Player.

"He goes a little further and becomes more involved in the game. We use his strength and he also scores the goals, so it's really good.

"We have to hustle him slowly, but he's doing really well and I'm very happy for him."
