Arsenal has a tough decision to make about a young player that Bayern Munich is interested in acquiring.

Chido Obi-Martin, at just 16 years old, is considered one of the most promising talents to come out of Arsenal's academy. With his impressive skills and goal-scoring abilities, it's no surprise that he has caught the attention of other top clubs, including Bayern Munich.

According to reports, the German club is interested in signing Obi-Martin, causing a bit of a transfer headache for Arsenal. The Gunners are determined to keep hold of their young star and are currently in negotiations with his representatives.

Obi-Martin's rise to fame has been nothing short of remarkable. In November, he scored an impressive 10 goals for Arsenal's U16s in their 14-3 victory against Liverpool. He was then promoted to the U18s and continued to impress, scoring seven goals in a 9-0 win over Norwich last weekend.

However, Arsenal faces a major problem in keeping Obi-Martin due to his dual-nationality status and current Football Association rules. As a result, he cannot sign a professional contract until his 17th birthday in November. This rule does not apply in some other European countries, such as Germany, where players can sign professional contracts at the age of 16.

With Brexit causing uncertainty for young players with European Union passports, German clubs have been targeting talents like Obi-Martin, offering them the opportunity for faster development and first-team football. Bayern Munich, in particular, has expressed their interest in signing him, which would be a major blow to Arsenal.

Despite this, the Gunners are doing everything they can to convince Obi-Martin to stay. They are currently in negotiations with his representatives and are prepared to fight to keep their biggest wonderkid. However, it's worth noting that Obi-Martin recently signed with Elite Project Group, the same agency that helped facilitate Jadon Sancho's move to Borussia Dortmund.

But, it's not all doom and gloom for Arsenal. It's still uncertain where Obi-Martin will end up, and there is a possibility that he may choose to stay at the Emirates. After all, he has already established himself as a top talent at such a young age, and Arsenal may offer him the best opportunity for his development.

The Gunners will be hoping to hold on to their young star, as they face a summer of uncertainty with other key players potentially leaving the club. But for now, they are focused on keeping Obi-Martin and securing their future with this promising talent.
