GILLINGHAM boss Mark Stimson will give prodigy Luke Freeman his full backing if he decides to move to Arsenal.

The 15-year-old forward is currently holding talks with a couple of clubs, one of whom is rumoured to be the Gunners.

Stimson admitted: “If my 15-year-old son had the chance to go to Arsenal, even as a Tottenham fan, you couldn’t turn it down.

“I think the football that club plays is the best in the world but I can see the other point of view, about the benefits of him staying here.

“It’s going to be Luke’s decision. He’s seeing a couple of clubs and been talking to them.

“He’s a special talent and has the potential to go a long, long way.”

Freeman simultaneously broke two records last month when he came on as substitute in the cup tie against Barnet.

He became the youngest ever player to feature in the FA Cup proper, as well Gillingham’s youngest ever first team player.
