The 19-year-old midfielder has grown increasingly frustrated with his lack of first team opportunities with the Gunners, after damaging knee ligaments at the beginning of last season.

Frimpong joined Arsenal in July 2008, but is yet to make his first team debut and revealed he is currently pondering offers from the Addicks and Championship side Cardiff City.

“It was a difficult season for me with the injury and the comeback, but I think I will need to look elsewhere if the current situation continues,” he said.

“Cardiff and Charlton have made enquiries and my understanding is that they’re very serious about me. If I’m not going to get regular play at Arsenal, then what is the point in staying there?”
