A teenager from East Sheen will be running on to the pitch at Emirates stadium for every match this season.

Dylan Hazelden Kingdon has been selected to be part of the Arsenal ball squad and enjoyed his first London derby on Sunday, with Arsenal winning 1-0 winners to Tottenham Hotspur.

The 15-year-old is part of a 20-strong squad for the next season and will fetch the ball from the sidelines and throw it back to players to keep games running smoothly.

Dylan, a member of the club’s young supporter scheme the Junior Gunners, attended trials for the squad at the Gunners’ Hale End youth academy in May.
