Danny Welbeck has admitted dreaming of playing for Arsenal even before his £16million deadline-day move to the Emirates Stadium from Manchester United.
Welbeck revealed in an interview with Arsenal's website that he had always admired his new club's style from afar and pledged to capitalise on service from the Gunners' 'magnificent' midfield.
'It's exciting times for me,' he said. 'It's great to be a part of this club and it's a team that I've always watched in the Premier League. I've envisaged myself playing in this team before. For it to finally happen is very exciting.'
Welbeck undoubtedly has huge potential but still has plenty to prove after a meagre goalscoring return during his time at Old Trafford.
The England forward notched just 29 goals in 142 first-team appearances for United, albeit with many of those coming from the substitutes bench or while shunted out on the wing playing a support role to Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney.
'I believe the style of play the manager's got and the boys play and with the magnificent players in midfield slotting balls through, I can run on to the end of those balls and slot them away,' said Welbeck.
