Arsenal Football Club will release 10 young professionals at the end of their contracts on June 30.

Conor Henderson, Jernade Meade, Sanchez Watt, James Shea, Reice Charles-Cook, Sead Hajrovic, Philip Roberts, Nigel Neita, Samir Bihmoutine and Josh Rees will all be free to join other clubs from July 1.

Henderson, Meade and Watt all made first-team appearances for Arsenal.

Henderson, 21, made his one senior outing in an FA Cup replay against Leyton Orient in 2010/11. He has also represented the Republic of Ireland at under-21 level.

Meade, a regular in the Arsenal reserve and under-21 sides for the past two seasons, made two appearances for the first team last term. After helping the Gunners to a 7-5 League Cup victory over Reading in October, the 20-year-old full back marked his full debut with an assured display at Olympiacos in December.

Watt - part of the 2009 FA Youth Cup-winning side - featured three times for the senior team in 2009/10 and has gained competitive experience in loan spells with Colchester United, Crawley Town, Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds United and Southend United. A pacy striker, Watt scored five times in nine appearances for the under-21s last term.

Islington-born goalkeeper Shea was another fixture of the 2009 FA Youth Cup-winning side. He joins fellow keeper Charles-Cook in departing the Club this summer.

Hajrovic, who won the Under-17 World Cup with Switzerland in 2009, has been a regular for Arsenal’s reserve and under-21 sides for a number of seasons and made his senior level bow on loan with Barnet in League Two in 2011/12.

Roberts spent the 2012/13 season on loan with Inverness Caledonian Thistle, adapting well to first-team football with 23 appearances for the Scottish Premier League side.

Young forward Nigel Neita, called up to the full Jamaica squad last year, earned opportunities at under-21 level for Arsenal too, as did left-back Bihmoutine and midfielder Rees.

Everyone at Arsenal would like to thank these players for their contributions to the Club and wish them well in their future careers.
