Arsenal FC continues to bet on young international talent and has finalized an important agreement with Ecuadorian football. The English club has reached a deal to sign twins Edwin and Holger Quintero, two promising 16-year-old talents from Independiente Del Valle.
The news, reported by James Olley, was sealed this week after the brothers traveled to London to formalize their incorporation into the club.

Although the agreement is already in effect, the Quintero twins will not be able to formally join Arsenal’s ranks until they reach legal age. The transfer will become effective once the players turn 18 in 2027, following FIFA’s international regulations for signing foreign minors.
This move by Arsenal highlights the club’s long-term vision, aiming to secure future stars from the South American continent before they come of age.
Following in Hincapié’s footsteps
Edwin and Holger Quintero are considered two of the most exciting prospects in the youth divisions of Independiente Del Valle, a club renowned for its successful development model. The arrival of the twins will strengthen Arsenal’s youth structure, as the club continues to invest in players with the potential to join the first team in the future.
