‘I’ve come here to play as much as possible and try to help the team qualify for the Champions League.
‘I’d like to win the Europa League with Arsenal too – why not? It’s a trophy I won under Unai Emery at Sevilla and I’d love to win it again here.’
‘We are very happy that Denis Suarez is joining us,’ he said. ‘He is a player we know well and I have worked with him at Sevilla.
‘He brings us quality and options in many different attacking positions, so he’ll be able to help the team,” said Unai Emery.
