​DONE DEAL: Former Arsenal youngster Dennis joins Norwich

Recently relegated Norwich City have completed the signing of Matthew Dennis.

The 18-year-old has a contract until 2022 and is a free transfer, as his contract with Arsenal had expired.

He had been with the Gunners youth setup since he was six. Now Dennis is a Norwich player and will compete in the Championship next term.

Speaking to canaries.co.uk, Dennis said: "I'm really excited. I love the way Norwich play football, especially when the head coach gives young players opportunities.

"I know Josh Martin, as we were both at Arsenal together. He's a really good friend of mine and seeing him break through to the first team gives me confidence and belief that I can do the same."

He added: "The pitches here are great. The gym is nice, the food is nice, so everything is good.

"I'm most looking forward to proving to everybody what I can do, playing in front of the fans and changing the game."
