Henry Jeffcott has signed his first professional contract with the club.
The 18-year-old left-back joined our academy from Chelsea aged twelve, where he started off as a midfielder.
The attacking full-back, who has represented Northern Ireland U-19s at international level, made 18 appearances for our U-18s last season.
“It feels absolutely surreal,” Henry told Arsenal Media.
“I’ve been working for this for so many years and to sign today with my family it just feels amazing.”
“I’m in love with the club, the people in the club and every time I put on the badge I feel so privileged to be playing for this team and I can’t wait to push on and repay their trust.”
Everyone at the club would like to congratulate Henry on signing his first professional contract and we look forward to seeing his continued development.
