16-year-old Chido Martin Obi broke Arsenal's club record for most goals scored across a single Under-18 campaign with a ludicrous run of form which saw him net 25 goals in just nine games.
The previous record, which was held by Folarin Balogun, stood at 25 for the entire year, but Martin Obi matched that tally across just nine games which, when added to three goals he netted earlier this season, saw him claim the record for his own.
Martin Obi bagged three against Southampton back in September 2023 but then did not score in his next five appearances before scoring a consolation in a 3-1 defeat to Brighton in February. He then drew a blank against Fulham before kicking off an unfathomable tear in front of goal.
The teenager scored four goals in back-to-back games against both Crystal Palace and Fulham and followed that up with one against West Bromwich Albion.
Two more goals arrived against Brighton before Martin Obi put five past West Ham and added one more in a 4-2 win over Aston Villa.
Balogun's record tumbled on Saturday as Martin Obi netted a ridiculous seven goals, including five in the first half, to end the day on 28 strikes in just 16 games.
