Arsenal are expected to trigger Charlie Patino’s contract extension this week but it’s understood no formal conversations have taken place over a new, long-term deal for the teenager.

The midfielder, 19, is currently building senior experience on loan at Championship side Blackpool, with his current contract set to expire at the end of the season.

Arsenal have the option to keep him for a further two years, provided they exercise it in the very near future.
