Ovie Prince Ejeheri is one of the highly-rated young goalkeepers in England, as evidenced by England’s calls for him to attend their goalkeeper training camp for the Under-21 squad.
Ejeheri was born in Greenwich, London, to a Nigerian father and a Ugandan mother. He is eligible to play for England, Nigeria, or Uganda.
Born on April 23, 2003, Ejeheri is an English professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Arsenal.
Ejeheri joined Arsenal at the age of eight. In August 2021, he signed his first professional contract with the club.
However, in 2022, he was sent on loan to Chelmsford City, where he featured until January 2023. During his time at Chelmsford, Ejeheri made 25 appearances in all competitions, keeping 12 clean sheets.
The 20-year-old shot-stopper was subsequently loaned to the Finnish club SJK, where he managed to keep nine clean sheets in 14 games.
Regarding his international career, Ejeheri, who is eligible to represent England, Nigeria, or Uganda, has only participated in an England youth training camp that took place in December 2020. This means he still has the option to change the country he represents.
