The Arsenal forwards siblings Ricky and Tessa, both youth workers helped keep their brothers head screwed on.
“All the time after school I didn’t really have another choice, I’d either go to my brother’s youth work in Peckham or my sister’s in Albany Road.”
Brother Ricky's work was done.
The moment he realised was when he embraced his little brother after the 2017 Community Shield match at Wembley Stadium.
“Reiss, you’re on the way to the top now so I can leave you be, you know what you want to do”.

If a permanent deal cannot be agreed, a loan deal is not out of the realms of possibility.
Elneny still remains in close contact with his former teammates, and even had a visit from friend Mesut Özil .
