Arsenal are prepared to sell Charlie Patino this summer.

Patino, currently on-loan with Blackpool, wants to leave Arsenal for regular senior football - and prefers an outright sale.

The London Evening Standard says Arsenal are understanding of the midfielder's desires and are willing to let him leave during the upcoming transfer window.

The Gunners expect Patino, 19, to attract a healthy transfer fee.

They will explore inserting a buy-back clause in the sale deal.
