Charlie Patino is ready to leave Arsenal at the end of the season.

The midfielder has spent this season on-loan in the Championship with Swansea City, where he has impressed.

The London Evening Standard says Patino cannot see a path for himself to Arsenal's first team and instead is prepared to ask for a transfer this summer.

And Gunners manager Mikel Arteta is expected to sanction the sale.

A move to Spain has been mooted for Patino, who holds a Spanish passport and has family connections to the country.
