Lucas Torreira joins Atletico Madrid on loan

Lucas Torreira has joined Spanish side Atletico Madrid on a season-long loan.

The Uruguay international has made 89 appearances since joining us from Serie A side Sampdoria ahead of the 2018/19 season.

The combative midfielder was part of the FA Cup match-winning squad and his goal in the 4-2 north London derby win at Emirates Stadium in November 2018 was a highlight during his first season.

Everyone at Arsenal wishes Lucas well during his time with Atletico Madrid this season.

The loan deal is subject to the completion of regulatory processes.
