Arsenal secures superstar Spaniard with four-year deal: report

The Gunners fought hard for a 2-0 victory against a struggling Leicester City over the weekend. Mikel Merino, coming off the bench, scored two crucial goals in the dying moments of the game to secure three points for Arsenal. The Basque midfielder, usually playing in the midfield, was pushed up front due to Arsenal's injury woes.

Kai Havertz has been ruled out for the season after hamstring surgery, with Bukayo Saka only just back in training after suffering the same fate. Gabriel Jesus is also sidelined for the rest of the campaign with an ACL injury.
