The 18-year-old arrived on the scene last season amid plenty of hype. Sean O’Connor, Arsenal’s head of scouting, previously described Patino as the “best player who has ever walked through the doors at Hale End.”

And he certainly delivered on his first team debut, scoring against Sunderland in an EFL Cup tie just ten minutes after coming off the bench last December.
