His standout performance of the year came in Estonia's 0-0 draw with Wales in their World Cup qualifier, as he made a number of remarkable saves and was named Man of the Match for his efforts.

The 19-year-old, who made his non-competitive first-team debut for Arsenal in July in the pre-season match at Hibs, was also a member of the first-team matchday squad six times in the Europa League last season.

Hein has made 14 appearances in the Premier League 2 so far this year and in September signed a new long-term contract.
