Declan Rice praises Arsenal's Max Dowman as top talent

Declan Rice has praised young Arsenal player Max Dowman, calling him the "best 15-year-old in the country." Dowman has trained with Arsenal's first team several times this season and was part of the squad that went to Dubai last month. As a product of Arsenal’s youth academy, Dowman is seen as a bright prospect for the future under manager Mikel Arteta. Rice believes it is only a matter of time before Dowman gets to play in senior matches. Rice compared Dowman with other young talents like Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly, both of whom are making their mark this season. He acknowledged that while being the best at 15 is impressive, success at 18 is still uncertain. Rice emphasized the importance of hard work and staying focused. He has built a good relationship with Dowman and the other young players. Rice has offered guidance, having been in a similar position himself. He is committed to supporting these youngsters as they aspire to become established stars in the Premier League.
