Another former Tottenham Hotspur youth has joined Arsenal it seems.

Jonathan Dinzeyi, a 21-year-old striker, crossed the North London divide this past summer by signing for the Gunners after leaving Spurs.

It’s hardly another case of Sol Campbell, given that Dinzeyi is unproven at the moment, but if he does go on to big things at Arsenal then it might sting those back at Tottenham.

And another ex-player from their youth academy has now made the same move, albeit not directly.

Arsenal have snapped up teenage starlet Reuell Walters for their Under-16 side.

Walters moves to London Colney from Manchester United’s academy, whom he joined from the Lilywhites’ youth program earlier.

And here’s how the player himself reacted to the switch on Twitter on Friday:

He is a right-back and it’ll be interesting to see how he develops over the coming years.

According to Arsenal Youth, he will be included in the club’s scholarship intake next year.
