WATCH: Nwakali’s incredible goal that earned him Man-of-the-Match in Holland

Arsenal loan star Kelechi Nwakali has sent a message to Arsene Wenger with a sensational first professional goal.

The 18-year-old Nigerian signed for the north London side back in June but was sent to Dutch outfit MVV Maastricht to get some vital game time.

The young striker who was named Man of the Match is making full use of his time by getting on the score sheet in style in his side’s 2-0 win over De Graafschap.

MVV Maastricht, who are third in Eerste Divisie – the second division in Holland – were defending a set piece and hitting their opponents on the break.

Picking the ball up just outside the box, the teenager is part of a three-man attack being closed down by just one player.

Despite the numbers being on his side however, the youngster still has a lot to do, but takes it all in his stride.

In a shirt similar to the Arsenal home strip, the youngster turns his defender left and right and beats him with ease before confronting the keeper.

He then stands him up before rifling the ball through his legs and wheeling away in delight after putting his side two-up.

Nwakali initially turned heads when representing his country at the 2015 Under-17 World Cup, before signing on the dotted line at Arsenal.

The goal in the above video is the first of his professional career.
