Arsenal great David Seaman admits he's a fan of Karl Hein.

While the focus has been on the battle between senior pair Aaron Ramsdale and David Raya, Seaman says Hein is one to watch.

"Karl Hein is really good," he told the Daily Express. "He's on the fringes with the first team as well. He's looking really promising.

"There's a few younger lads.

"Because I'm mainly with the Under-18s, with Jack Wilshere as my boss so to speak, it's nice to see. Even at the end of last season, there were some goalkeepers who weren't going to get offered a contract, and that was me when I was 19.

"I got released when I was 19, so I've got that experience to pass on. I'm there as a mentor. They know that they can ask me any questions they want.

"At the end of last season, I told a few of the guys that even though it feels like the end, it's not the end. There's a chance at moving on and that's what I had to do - go to Peterborough United and rebuild my career."
