Arsenal Sign Barcelona midfielder on a transfer deadline day.

The English football side Arsenal FC have confirmed the signing of Barcelona midfielder. He is on loan to the English club side until the end of the season.

Denis Suarez has an extension of contract with Barcelona until June 2021. Thus the gunners have a purchase option in the summer.

The Spaniard has 71 caps for Barcelona since joining the club in 2013 but only has featured 8 times this season.

He previously played under Gunners manager Unai Emery at Sevilla, when he was at the club on loan.

At 19-year-old, Suarez spent two season with veteran Manchester City. He made to first-team appearances before joining Barcelona as a teenager.

The Gunners remain in negotiations to sign a wide player - Inter Milan's Croatia international Ivan Perisic is among the options being pursued, with Belgium winger Yannick Carrasco of Chinese club Dalian Yifang also linked.

Despite a number of injuries, Arsenal are not likely to bolster their defence.
Captain Laurent Koscielny could be in contention to return in time for Sunday's trip to Manchester City, while Sokratis Papastathopoulos - who like Koscielny was forced off during the FA Cup defeat by Manchester United on Friday - is not expected to be out for long.
