Arsenal are in pole position to sign Newcastle United starlet Freddie Woodman this summer, according to reports.
And it is his relationship with one of the Gunners’ senior coaches which the Londoners will hope can give them an edge to sign the promising star.
Andy Woodman, Freddie’s dad, is Arsenal’s Head of Academy Goalkeeping and Under-23’s goalkeeping coach.

The former Northampton goalkeeper has written a book with former Crystal Palace teammate Gareth Southgate, who is also Freddie’s Godfather.
And, according to Chronicle Live, the keeper is ready to walk away from Tyneside in the summer.
Woodman has played in all three of Newcastle’s FA Cup games this season, but his contract at St James’ Park expires in 2020.
The shot-stopper was part of the England Under-20 side who lifted the World Cup in 2017 and has just turned 22.
