Sport nationArsenal Striker Omari Benjamin Confirms Summer Exit, Everton Interested
Arsenal forward Omari Benjamin has announced his departure from the club this summer, seeking first-team football. The 18-year-old striker confirmed his exit via an Instagram post on Monday, ending his five-year career with the Arsenal Academy.
Benjamin’s decision comes after a season where he made only four appearances, despite impressing in the previous term with 11 goals in 16 Premier League 2 appearances and helping his team reach the 2023 FA Youth Cup final.
Everton has expressed interest in signing Benjamin on a long-term contract, and negotiations between the player’s representatives and the Goodison Park outfit are already underway.
The Gooner has been following Benjamin’s career and notes that his departure may come as a surprise to some, given his talent and potential. However, the young striker’s desire for first-team football is understandable, and a move to Everton could provide him with the opportunity he seeks.
The Toffees have been monitoring Benjamin’s progress and are keen to secure his signature. A deal is likely to be finalized in the coming weeks, although details of the transfer are yet to be disclosed.
Benjamin’s exit marks the end of an era for him at Arsenal, but he leaves with the best wishes of the club and its supporters. His talent and dedication will be remembered, and many will be watching his future progress with interest.
