Arsenal set to lose highly-rated midfielder this summer
Arsenal are set to lose highly-rated midfielder Charlie Patino this summer amid the lack of first-team opportunities.
The youngster spent the previous campaign on loan with Blackpool and it was anticipated that he would be sold last summer.
However, the Gunners decided to keep him for another campaign, but the same may not happen for the 2024/25 season.
Patino has had a mixed loan spell at Swansea City and he is now keen on pursuing a new challenge away from England.
He will enter the final year of his contract in July and the Gunners are expected to grant his departure this time around.
Patino is currently on the radar of Juventus and AC Milan. He could end up at one of those clubs during the summer window.
Arsenal value him in the region of €20m, but could sell him for even less, considering he has barely played at the top level.
The 20-year-old was once tipped to become Granit Xhaka 's successor, but manager Mikel Arteta does not see him in his plans.
