International career

Style of play
Comfortable playing in a number of positions, Dowman has been utilised as an attacking midfielder and as a traditional '10' for Arsenal's youth teams, but can also play as a right winger. He is skilful, energetic and naturally gifted in the final third and is able to cut defences with a precise and accurate pass.[2][6] Arsenal youth team coach Gustavo Oliveira labelled Dowman the "next Kaká".[7]
