The
16-year-old has signed a deal but will remain in his homeland for further two
years, he will join the Gunners in 2017.

reports have some weight as the player hinted his move to the Gunners recently
while speaking to the media.

I have two years to do so.”
The
two years of delay in his completion of deal is because he is a very young boy and
living without a family will be complicated.

he is learning.

don’t know it, I can’t speak English, I’m learning.”
