Arsenal stars have poured praise on Ethan Nwaneri after he helped the England under-21s win the European Championships.

The Hale End academy star has yet to have much rest since the end of the Premier League season, featuring heavily during the Euros with England.

While Ethan Nwaneri saw his role change throughout the tournament, he played a role in almost every game under Lee Carsley.

The Arsenal ace certainly had an involvement, as England won back-to-back European Championships, and he has since taken to social media to post about the feat.

Arsenal stars react to Ethan Nwaneri winning the Euros with England under-21s

Nwaneri played his part in England becoming European champions once again at under-21s level under head coach Carsley.

The youngster was handed several different positions throughout the tournament, featuring on the right and left wings, as well as at centre-forward.

He came off the bench as England beat Germany in the final, recreating the feat of Emile Smith Rowe just two years prior.

Nwaneri has since taken to social media to discuss the achievement, simply saying: “What a team – Champions of Europe.”

Arsenal stars past and present all commented on the post, as Ian Wright and Myles Lewis-Skelly simply posted hearts.

Fellow Arsenal academy graduate Reiss Nelson said: “Cold”, while Max Dowman took it one step further and said “Coldest”.

England under-21 teammates Harvey Elliott, Samuel Illing-Junior and Hayden Hackney also joined in with praise in the replies.

It shows just how well thought of he is among his peers, teammates and pundits.

What Ethan Nwaneri will do now after the under-21 Euros win

Having finally seen his season come to an end, Nwaneri can start to look at relaxing for the summer, at least for a little while.

The Arsenal youngster has had little time since the end of the Premier League campaign to have some time off on holiday, relaxing and recuperating before returning to action.

Nwaneri is set to spend some time away; however, Arsenal’s pre-season tour is only around the corner now.

There are only a few weeks left before the Gunners are in action in Asia, preparing for the upcoming campaign.

It’s unclear when Nwaneri could return to training, but there is some time for a little more rest before then.
