Nigerian footballer, Osei Tutu trains with Arsenal first team for the first time ahead of Newcastle United game

23 years old Nigerian youngster was spotted in training at Arsenal this afternoon ahead of their weekend Premier League game.

Arsenal defender Jordi Osei-Tutu is currently on loan at Nottingham Forest. He returned to his parent club after he sustained an hamstring injury few days ago. Osei-Tutu was forced off in the early stages of their clash with Blackburn.

It's been gathered that the defender has been setting-up his fitness in order to return to his loaned club next week. 

Meanwhile on Friday, Osei Tutu was pictured in first-team training with Arsenal ahead of their Premier League meeting with Newcastle.

Osei-Tutu joined the Arsenal academy from Reading in 2015 and he gained his promotion into the Under-23s in 2018-19. In 2019-20, he joined Bochum on loan for the season, making 21 league appearances and claiming five goals and three assists.
