“We are all looking forward to working with him and enjoying his future contribution to Arsenal. We will now continue to work hard and are looking forward to finishing this transfer window as strongly as possible.”
Vieira was excited to join the Gunners, “I’m thrilled, of course, This is an important step forward in my career. Arsenal is a huge and historic club, so I’m delighted to be here at my new home.
