Kristopher Da Graca says it ‘feels good’ to join the Gunners.

Arsenal have beaten off a host of competition to land Swedish teenager Kristopher Da Graca.

The 15-year-old was wanted by Aston Villa as well as the Gunners bitter rivals Chelsea and Tottenham.

Da Graca had been on trial at all four clubs but opted to join the Gunners from Swedish fourth division outfit Hisingbacka FC.

The youngster is expected to sign a contract this week and will officially move to North London next summer.

“Arsenal are a big and good club,” De Graca told FootballTransfers.com.

“I’ve had a chance to become a good soccer player, it feels good. At first though I will have to train with them in my own age.”

 

Via Sami Mokbel of the Daily Mail:

“Sportmail understands the 30-year-old has privately acknowledged that this will be his final season at the club—and is preparing for life away from London.

Given his age, this will be Sagna’s last major contract and the right-back knows leaving on a free transfer offers him the best prospect of a hefty pay day”.
