Arsenal announce signing of Ecuadorian twin brothers | OneFootball

Arsenal have announced that they have signed 16-year-old prospects Edwin Quintero Quintero and Hólger Quintero with the twin brothers officially joining the club in 2027.

The two attacking midfielders have come through the academy at Independiente del Valle and represented their country at youth level. Edwin usually operates on the right wing while Hólger plays more centrally.

Due to their age, they aren't able to officially link up with the Gunners until August 2027 but the North London club have guaranteed their services in the future.

"We will be collaborating closely with Independiente del Valle on the development and wellbeing of both Edwin and Holger until they arrive at Arsenal," the club said in a statement.

Current Arsenal defender Piero Hincapié also came through the academy at the Sangolquí-based club and has so far played eight times for Mikel Arteta's side.
