Arsenal whizkid Charlie Patino has offered his support to a bullied Gunners fan.

The 18-year-old reached out to the mother of a young supporter on Twitter on Monday.

"It's really sad to read this Fran. Please tell Freddie that we're all supporting him, and I'm going to send him a signed pair of boots," he wrote.

"Us Gooners are a family and we'll get him smiling again.

The woman replied: "Freddie is the biggest [Charlie Patino] fan this is honestly so lovely."

Alexandre Lacazette also offered support, responding on Twitter: "Hi Fran, really sorry to hear about your son's situation. Id love to invite you both to a game. Bullies will never win. Please check your dm."
