Club career

Early career

Arp, who is only called by his middle name Fiete,[2] was born in Bad Segeberg, Schleswig-Holstein and grew up with his separated parents in Bad Segeberg and nearby Wahlstedt.[3] At the age of 4, he started playing football at SV Wahlstedt.[4] His first major success was winning the 2008 Gothia Cup with the U11 team of the Segeberg District Football Association.[5]

For the 2010–11 season, Arp moved to the Hamburger SV youth academy, where he initially played with the U11 team.[6] In the 2015–16 and 2016–17 seasons, Arp scored 36 goals in a total of 44 appearances in the Under 17 Bundesliga and was the top scorer of the North/Northeast group with 26 goals in the 2016–17 season.[7] During the winter break of the 2016–17 season, Arp was included with the Hamburger SV first team under head coach Markus Gisdol.[8][9] In the second half of the season, in parallel to appearances in the U17 league – he also appeared in the Under 19 Bundesliga, in which he scored 2 goals in 4 appearances by the end of the season. For his achievements, Arp received the golden Fritz Walter Medal in the U17 age group in July 2017.[10]

Hamburger SV

Arp made his debut for Hamburger SV in the Nordderby against rivals Werder Bremen, coming on as an 89th-minute substitute for Bobby Wood.[11] This made him the first Bundesliga player born in the 2000s.[12]

On 28 October 2017, Arp scored his first Bundesliga goal against Hertha BSC, thus becoming the first Bundesliga player born in the 2000s to score a goal.[13][12]

Bayern Munich

On 7 February 2019, it was announced that Arp would join Bayern Munich at the beginning of either the 2019–20 season or the 2020–21 season.[14] He ultimately joined Bayern Munich on 1 July 2019.[1] After a disappointing first season in which he failed to make a single Bundesliga appearance, Arp was made a permanent member of the club's secondary team in order to receive more playing practice.[15]

International career

Arp was part of the German under-17 team, scoring seven goals in the 2017 UEFA European Under-17 Championship.[16]

Later that year, Arp played in the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup, where he scored five goals.[17]
