Carlos Vela has been granted a work permit to begin his Arsenal career. The Mexican youngster is very highly rated and expected to be a key player for Arsenal's squad as of next season.
"Despite the critics that we have received for making Carlos play at Celta Vigo, Salamanca and Osasuna, these spells have been very important for preparing for life in the Premier League," said Vela's agent Eduardo Hernandez.
"His time in Spain has now come to a close and he is just waiting for his passport.
"He has worked the amount of time required by the Premier League and everything is going fine.
"He has been granted permission to play and will be joining Arsenal in July for the beginning of pre-season training.
"Many people have criticised us for the way this process has been handled but the laws of Fifa and the rules of competition in some countries have meant that we have experienced some problems.
"But they are over now and a new chapter in his career can begin.
