Arsenal striker Timi Davies has thanked his mum for helping him land his first pro contract with the Gunners.
The 17-year-old only joined the Gunners from Manchester City's academy in March.
But after making three appearances for the Gunners U18 side, the club have decided to reward Davies with a proper deal.
And he told Arsenal.com: "It feels amazing, I couldn't have done it without my mum, it's been a long journey.
"I think my family has had the biggest impact on me to get me where I am right now, because without them, it would be impossible, especially all the help my mum has given me, taking me to training every day and all the support they've given me.
"All the effort everyone's put into me and all the belief everyone's shown in me were major factors in me signing this contract."
