Description:

Jeff Reine-Adélaïde is a product of RC Lens youth system – the academy that also produced players such as Geoffrey Kondogbia and Raphaël Varane. Jeff moved to Arsenal during the summer 2015 after helping France win the European Under-17 championship. He got his chance during club’s pre-season and made an instant impression, including an assist and all-round superb performance against Wolfsburg. Jeff is eligible to feature at U18 level this season, but is instead likely to be heavily involved in the U21s.

(Arsene Wenger – Arsenal manager)
