Arsenal: Matteo Guendouzi's first day with the Gunners
Guendouzi has become Arsenal’s fifth summer signing after sealing his move from Ligue 2 side Lorient for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old follows the likes of Lucas Torreira, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Bernd Leno through the Emirates doors this summer as new head coach Unai Emery continues his squad overhaul.
And after being unveiled as a Gunners player, Guendouzi enjoyed an action-packed first day at his new training ground, London Colney.
Guendouzi was seen taking part in a photoshoot in his new Arsenal kit before giving fans a glimpse of his skills with the ball.
He was later seen undergoing his first training session with his new team-mates under the watchful eye of boss Emery.
After sealing his move to the Premier League, Guendouzi said: “Arsenal have always been the team closest to my heart and a side I’ve wanted to join since I was a child.
“It gives me great pride – it’s incredible. I hope I can do great things here.
“It doesn’t get any better than coming to a club like this, with so much history, like Arsenal. I’m hugely proud.”
Emery has spoken of his delight at signing the talented young player.
“We are delighted Matteo is joining us,” he said.
“He is a talented young player and a lot of clubs were interested in him.
“He has big potential and gained good first-team experience last season with Lorient.
“He wants to learn and improve and will be an important part of our first-team squad.”
