Arsenal<\/a> have officially announced the signing of young defender Carl Jenkinson<\/a> from Charlton Athletic<\/a> for an undisclosed fee.<\/p>\n

The teenager featured on nine occasions for the League One side and sufficiently impressed to earn a move to the north London club.<\/p>\n

The 19-year-old can play either at right-back or as a centre-half, and plays for the Finland’s Under-21 side.<\/p>\n

The youngster originally started off playing for England at the U-17 level, as he was born in the town of Harlow.<\/p>\n

But having a Finnish mother meant that he also qualified to play under another banner, which is a choice he made when he featured for the U-19 side before going on to represent Finland at the U-21 level.<\/p>\n

Apart from the signing of Jenkinson, the Gunners also announced that youngsters Benik Afobe, Chuks Aneke and Oguzhan Ozyakup have all committed their futures to the club.<\/p>\n

A statement on the club’s official website reads: “Arsenal Football Club is delighted to announce that promising defender Carl Jenkinson, 19, has arrived from League One side Charlton Athletic.<\/p>\n

“His signing was confirmed as young Gunners Benik Afobe, Chuks Aneke and Oguzhan Ozyakup also pledged their futures to the club.”<\/p>\n
