Emile Smith Rowe (born 28 July 2000) is an English professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for English club Arsenal.

Early life

He originates from Thornton Heath in the south London borough of Croydon.[4] He relocated to north London with his parents and brother when he was signed by Arsenal in 2010.[5]

Club career

Arsenal

Smith Rowe joined Arsenal's Hale End Academy in 2010 at the age of ten. He made his first appearance for the Under-23s in 2016–17, at the age of 16. He continued in the Under-23s during the 2017–18 season, making 11 appearances for the side.[citation needed]

Aged 17 he joined the senior team on their pre-season tour of Singapore in July 2018. He scored a goal in the 1–1 draw against Atletico Madrid in the International Champions Cup.[6][7] He also assisted a goal in the 5–1 win against PSG in the same competition on 28 July, which was also his 18th birthday.[8]

Smith Rowe signed a new long-term professional contract with Arsenal on 31 July 2018, when he was described by head coach Unai Emery as having "lots of potential".[9][10] The length of the contract was not disclosed by Arsenal, but it was reported to be a five-year deal.[11]

Smith Rowe made his Arsenal first-team competitive debut on 20 September 2018 against Vorskla Poltava in the UEFA Europa League, coming on as a second-half substitute for Alex Iwobi.[12] His appearance was the first Arsenal professional debut by a player born in the 2000s.[13][14] He scored after starting the following Europa League match against Qarabag in a 3–0 victory for Arsenal, becoming the youngest goalscorer in a competitive match since Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in 2011, and the first player born after 2000 to score for the London club.[15][16] He scored his first goal at the Emirates in a 2–1 victory over Blackpool in the Fourth Round of the EFL Cup.[17]

RB Leipzig (loan)

On 31 January 2019, he joined RB Leipzig on loan until the end of the 2018–19 season.[18] After signing the loan deal RB Leipzig discovered Smith Rowe was not fully recovered from a groin injury.[19]
