Arsenal have reportedly extended Charlie Patino's contract to keep him at the club until at least 2025.
The Hale Ender has been tipped to follow Bukayo Saka and Emile Smith Rowe and become a regular at the club after making his debut in a Carabao Cup tie against Sunderland last season. The 19-year-old marked his debut with a goal and has continued his development with an impressive first half of the season with Championship side Blackpool.
Patino has made 18 appearances for the Tangerines this season and has forced himself as one of Michael Appleton's key players in midfield. However, whilst he impresses in the Football League, concerns back in north London over his future had grown as his contract was set to expire in summer 2023.
