Patino, who turns 20 on Tuesday, hopes to follow in the footsteps of many of his seniors who found it difficult at first. But did an excellent job playing on loan and returned to being a mainstay for the club, citing William Saliba as an example.

“It’s inspiring to see someone from Arsenal go on loan. Make a name and come back and show your potential at Arsenal because this is a great club,” Patino told the Daily Mail.

“Everyone’s journey is different. Bukayo Saka went from the academy to the first team, Eddie Nketiah went out on loan a few times, Emile Smith. Rowe has been out on loan a couple of times so everyone has a different journey.

“At the end of the day, it’s about getting where you want to get to. And that’s the same with me. I want to play for Arsenal’s first team and being here is a great path to help me do that.”

“Physicality is one of the main areas I need to improve. I especially focus on the body. Go to the gym more to improve yourself. I think it’s important because I want to raise my level and play in the Premier League. The game is much faster now. And you have to be ready for one-on-one duels and battles all over the field.”
