Nacho Monreal has completed his permanent move to Real Sociedad.
The full-back has signed a two-year contract with the Spanish side, bringing an end to his six-and-a-half stay in north London.
The 33-year-old has been a loyal servant during his time at Arsenal where he made 250 appearances for the Gunners.
Arsenal shared an emotion video on Twitter after the news of Monreal's exit was confirmed, which read: "For six-and-a-half years of service, for 250 appearances, for 10 goals, for 20 assists, for three FA Cups, for those equalisers at Old Trafford and Wembley, for your unwavering consistency, and for being our very own #LaCabra , we just want to say… thankyou!"
A statement on Arsenal's club website added: "We would like to thank Nacho for his contribution to the club and everyone at Arsenal wishes him the best for his future."
While the news of Nacho Monreal's exit is a blow for the Gunners, it's set to pave the way for the likes of Kieran Tierney.
The former Celtic defender moved to the Emirates Stadium this summer but is yet to make an appearance after suffering a groin injury while with the Scottish champions.
Tierney is undergoing on-field rehabilitation and it's thought that he could be fit to return next month.
