The 19-year-old made history in 2022 when he became Arsenal’s youngest-ever player after debuting against Brentford at just 15 years old.
However, uncertainty over his long-term role under Mikel Arteta has sparked growing interest from elsewhere.
According to TEAMtalk, Como are believed to be considering several possible deal structures, including a loan with an option to buy or a permanent move.
The Italian side view Nwaneri as a potential replacement for Nico Paz, who is expected to return to Real Madrid this summer.
Premier League clubs including Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Everton are also monitoring the midfielder closely, while Coventry City and Ipswich Town are interested in a loan arrangement.
German clubs Borussia Dortmund and RB Leipzig are also keeping tabs on the England youth international ahead of a potentially decisive summer for his future.
