Arsenal defender Maldini Kacurri has completed a permanent move to Grismby Town.
The centre-back made one competitive senior appearance for Arsenal, which came against Bolton Wanderers in the Carabao Cup in 2024.
Kacurri joined Arsenal in 2022 having been released by Fulham.
He produced some impressive performances at youth level and was part of the Arsenal U18 squad that reached the final of the FA Youth Cup in the 2022/23 season.
In total Kacurri played 31 times for Arsenal U18s, while he made seven appearances for the U19s and had 20 outings at U21 level.
During his time at Arsenal Kacurri experienced loan spells at Bromley and Morecambe, particularly impressing during the latter stint.
Kacurri also became a senior Albania international, making his debut against Gibraltar last year.
The 20-year-old has physical qualities that are likely to be useful in senior football and this seems the right deal for all concerned, with Arsenal looking to develop younger prospects such as Marli Salmon.
Kacurri made excellent progress during his Arsenal career and it will be intriguing to see how he develops elsewhere.
