He linked up with Arsène Wenger's squad on their summer tour of Asia and impressed at right back where his tough tackling and willingness to overlap caught the eye.

The promising defender, who featured nine times for Charlton’s first team, is predominantly a right back but can also play at centre half.

The 6ft 1ins youngster has already represented both countries at youth level and last season captained Finland Under-19s.
