Arsenal loanee Arthur Okonkwo wins Austrian Cup with Sturm Graz

Arsenal loan star Arthur Okonkwo helped Sturm Graz to win the Austrian Cup over the weekend.

The shot stopper is one of the highest rated young players in his position within the Gunners academy.

As Graz beat Rapid Vienna 2-0 on Sunday, Okonkwo was a standout for his side.

He was also a key part of the team reaching the final, as he saved two penalties during a quarter-final penalty shoot out against Red Bull Salzburg.

Gunners fans will be eager to see what the future holds for Okonkwo with respect to first team action.

Arsenal do have Aaron Ramsdale and Matt Turner as their goalkeeping options.

Okonkwo does have a lot of work to do to earn first team football at the Emirates Stadium.
