Dreams do come true, don’t they? At least for 17 year old Daniel Crowley who has received a perfect birthday gift – his first professional contract with Arsenal, the world can’t be a more happier place. The teenager wasted no time to express his sheer delight taking to his Twitter account posing with his family and agent after confirming his deal with the London club.

The midfielder turned 17 this past Sunday and perhaps his dream came true as he signed for the Gunners a day later. Crowley joined the London club from Aston Villa in 2013. So far he has featured in the Under-19 UEFA Youth League in which he made three appearances. Crowley had a successful debut season and is likened to Jack Wilshere. His moment to glory came when he scored a brace and provided four assists in the Gunners’ 6-0 victory over Peterborough United in the fourth round of the FA Youth Cup. Arsenal fans will certainly expect he turns out to be yet another fantastic acquisition for the future.
