Ethan, who was born in London, is eligible to play for the Super Eagles because of his Nigerian father, Obi Nwaneri.
Nwaneri told Arsenal's official website when asked about his love for international football, "I’ve always enjoyed England camps—it’s really good.
"You meet up with your friends from different clubs and it breaks the circuit a bit. It’s a change of scenery and sometimes that can do you good.
