“He’s the example of a good player who has not been identified by anybody as a potential first-team player,” said Jonker to Arsenal Player.
“Many, many people seem to think you have to recognise an under-nine as a potential first-team player.

“When you spend a
long time in youth football, you understand that you will never know.
There are positive and negative surprises, but Alex is one of those boys
who has continued to work hard, and kept his commitment and dedication
no matter what has happened.
“In the end he made it and he has been a big surprise to everyone at Arsenal but we all love it. He’s surprised us all.”
