Declan Rice is delighted to be reunited with Eddie Nketiah at Arsenal.
The pair are former Chelsea teammates.
The new Gunners signing revealed: "I played with Eddie from under-nines to under-14s. We were both released on the same day and it's crazy where football takes you, your journey. He's made it through the ranks at Arsenal, I made it through the ranks at West Ham.
"Now we get to link back up again.
"I've always loved Eddie, even though we had that little altercation on the pitch before! I've always loved him and been close to his family. His dad is a top, top guy who used to come on all the tours with us as kids, so I'm really looking forward to seeing Eddie again and of course the other boys."
