Arsenal fans beg for Denis Suarez after club post first tweet on deadline day
ARSENAL fans have taken to Twitter to beg their club to announce the signing of Barcelona’s Denis Suarez.
Suarez has been linked with Arsenal throughout all of January and a loan move for the Spanish midfielder looks to have finally gone through.
But Arsenal haven’t officially announced the transfer yet, leaving Gunners fans feeling impatient.

- DEADLINE DAY - THE COMPLETED DEALS SO FAR ON DEADLINE DAY
Barcelona seemed to announce the deal yesterday on their official website but the post was later taken down, putting doubt in the minds of fans.
And in reply to a tweet about Pierre-Eemerick Aubameyang joining on this day last year, fans have been quick to demand the announcement of Suarez.
One twitter user wrote: “And on this day in 2019 arsenal will announce Denis Suarez.”
Another one went with the same quip: “On this day Arsenal signed Denis Suarez and the rest is history.”
Someone else tweeted in reference to Yannick Carrasco as well: “On this day we announce #BienvenidoDenis also #WelkomYannick.”
Others questioned the situation: “Suarez???????”
One simply wrote: “Announce Suarez.”
Arsenal have been under pressure to deliver transfers this window, following a poor end to the year in the Premier League.
But manager Unai Emery noted earlier this month that it was only possible to make loan signings this window.
Carrasco is another one that could be on his way to the Emirates this month, but his current club Dalian Yifang will only sanction a loan move.
Inter Milan’s Ivan Perisic has also been linked with a temporary move to the Gunners but Arsenal are now unwilling to go ahead with the deal.
Inter are reportedly asking for Arsenal agree to an obligatory fee that would see the Croatian join in the summer.
Arsenal, however, are only interested in the option to buy Perisic, who has handed in a transfer request at the San Siro.
Unai Emery is also after PSG's Christopher N'Kunu, but there's little time left for the two parties to agree anything.

The Gunners said the loan deal was "subject to the completion of regulatory processes".
Arsenal head coach Unai Emery, who worked with the player during his spell at Sevilla, said on the club website: "We are very happy that Denis Suarez is joining us. He is a player we know well and I have worked with him at Sevilla.
"He brings us quality and options in many different attacking positions, so he'll be able to help the team."
