Newcastle United beat the clock by minutes to secure the loan signing of Joe Willock.
The Arsenal youngster has joined on a deal until the end of the season as Newcastle failed to bring in Hamza Choudhury on deadline day.
After signing for the Magpies, Willock said: “I'd like to thank all the supporters for their warm welcome and messages so far.
“This is a club with a massive history that I've grown up watching and I'll work my socks off for the team.
"I can't wait to see everyone and be part of the Newcastle family."
His new manager Steve Bruce was thrilled to land the midfielder and said; “I’m delighted to bring Joe to Newcastle until the end of the season.
"He is a very exciting and talented young player who can get up and down the pitch and can score a goal from midfield.
"He has made a very decent impact at Arsenal after coming through the ranks and to make nearly 80 appearances for the club by the age of 21 says much about his development, ability and character.
"He is very keen to come here and test himself and he’ll be a great addition to the squad.”
