Chukwuemeka Ademola Amachi "Chuks" Aneke (born 3 July 1993) is an English footballer who plays as a midfielder for League One side Milton Keynes Dons. He has represented England at under-16, under-17, under-18, and under-19 levels.
Aneke joined Arsenal in 2001, age seven, and progressed through the ranks. He made his reserves debut against Maidenhead United in a pre-season friendly on 28 July 2009. Both Aneke and Benik Afobe were offered the chance to visit FC Barcelona's training base with view to signing for them. However, he signed a professional contract with Arsenal in July 2010.
Ahead of 2011–12 season, Aneke signed a contract extension with the club. He scored for Arsenal's reserve side in friendly victories against Woking, Hastings United, and Stevenage respectively. He made his competitive first-team debut for Arsenal in the club's 3–1 League Cup victory against Shrewsbury Town on 20 September 2011, coming on as a 90th-minute substitute in the match.
Aneke joined League One side Stevenage on 22 November 2011, on a loan deal until 22 January 2012. He made his debut for the club on 26 November, in Stevenage's 0–0 home draw with Walsall, playing 57 minutes of the match before being replaced by Darius Charles. Aneke was sent-off for a high-footed challenge in a 1–0 defeat to Leyton Orient on 2 January 2012, resulting in a three-game suspension. It was later announced, on 20 January, that Aneke would remain on loan at Stevenage until March 2012, with a view to extending the loan until the end of the 2011–12 season.
