Nwaneri Joins Dortmund CL Squad, Faces Arsenal
4 Sep
Summary
- Ethan Nwaneri has been named in Dortmund's senior Champions League squad.
- This makes him eligible to play against his parent club, Arsenal.
- Nwaneri is versatile, comfortable playing across any of the four attacking positions.
Borussia Dortmund has finalized its Champions League squad, naming 24 senior players for the competition.
Notably, loanee Ethan Nwaneri has been designated a senior player. This is a necessary step for Nwaneri to participate in the Champions League, as he has not been with Dortmund long enough to qualify for their B-list.
This squad inclusion makes Nwaneri eligible to play against his parent club, Arsenal, in their upcoming League Phase match on November 24th. UEFA regulations permit players to face their parent clubs in the Champions League.
Nwaneri has indicated his flexibility regarding his playing position, stating he is comfortable in any of the four attacking roles, including wings or central forward positions.
There is a possibility that Arsenal might recall Nwaneri in January, which could affect his availability for later matches in the competition.
