It was a real pleasure to welcome Arsenal Under-18s goalkeeper Remi Lupinski to the Arsenal Hub, where he led a special goalkeeping session for our young people.

Remi, who only joined the club in August, has already begun to make his mark as an Arsenal player—and what better way to connect with the club than through Arsenal in the Community.

Drawing on his own experience between the posts, Remi led an exciting “Goalie Wars” session with children from our Football Plus programme. Alongside running the games, he shared valuable tips, rewarded standout saves with bonus points, and encouraged the young goalkeepers throughout.

After the session, Remi took part in a short Q&A, where he spoke about his journey to Arsenal, how he first became a goalkeeper, and offered advice to our aspiring footballers.

Fully engaging with the group, Remi reflected on the evening, saying: “It’s brilliant to come down to the Arsenal Hub. When I was young, I know how important it was to have academy players visit and inspire us, so I always try to give back whenever I can. 

I really enjoyed it-it’s great to play and engage with the next generation of footballers....
