"He needs to play men's football" – Father suggests Arsenal youngster could leave

The 19-year-old Arsenal midfielder is attracting Eredivisie interest and his father suggests he needs senior football to progress.

Demiane Agustien, a 19-year-old attacking midfielder at Arsenal, is drawing interest from Dutch clubs in the Eredivisie. Born in the Netherlands but developed through English academies at West Brom and Derby County before joining Arsenal last summer, Agustien has featured for the Gunners' U21s with four goals in 24 appearances. His father, Kemy Agustien (a former footballer who played for Birmingham City, Swansea City and Crystal Palace), told ESPN his son needs to step up to men's football to continue his development, comparing his left-footed ability to former Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech.
