Yet Crystal Palace and Norwich City have also made contact with the Gunners over a potential transfer.<\/p>\n<p>As mentioned, Casey is out of contract, but given his age (17) and the offer on the table from Arsenal, Palace or Norwich would need to agree a compensation package with the Gunners to sign him.<\/p>\n<p>Casey scored 21 goals for the Arsenal u18s in 2024\/25, netting 18 times in 21 games in the u18 Premier League, twice in three games in the FA Youth Cup, and once in two u18 Premier League Cup appearances.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"833\" height=\"542\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/457703000_2775977462582486_3136130648421087984_n.jpg\" alt=\"Dan Casey playing for the Arsenal academy (Photo via Casey on Instagram)\" class=\"wp-image-311404\" title=\"Crystal Palace &amp; Norwich City battle to sign Arsenal talent 4\" \/>Photo via Casey on Instagram<\/p>\n<p>The teenager also made the step up to the u19s and the u21s on eight occasions, though he was less impactful in those limited minutes, with no goals or assists above u18 football so far.<\/p>\n<p>That would surely change if he steps up to the u21s on a permanent basis this campaign, but first he has to extend his contract.
