Arsenal accidentally unveil new signing Omar Rekik after he’s spotted in training
The Gunners agreed a fee worth around £900,000 with the Bundesliga side on deadline day of the summer transfer window as part of the talks that saw Matteo Guendouzi move to the German capital on loan.
However, Arsenal ran out of time to rubberstamp the deal and have had to wait until January to complete the final paperwork, with the fee now believed to have been negotiated down to £542,000.
The 19-year-old fuelled speculation that an announcement was imminent when he shared an image on Instagram of him touching down in London last month.
And it appears Rekik has been taking part in training with Arsenal’s development squad since then, with the youngster pictured in the background of an image of the Under-23s practicing on Wednesday.
