Arsenal midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga will spend the 2024/25 season on loan at Sevilla.
The 24-year-old Belgian midfielder, who has a contract at the Emirates Stadium until 2026, hasn't played for Arsenal since January 2023 after successive loans at Crystal Palace and Luton Town.
In an injury hit 2023/24 campaign, Sambi Lokonga made only 17 Premier League appearances for the latter and was unable to prevent them suffering relegation to the Championship.
He will now have the chance to get his career back on track in La Liga, with Sevilla holding an option to make the loan into a permanent transfer next summer.
"We had some conversations with [director of football] Victor [Orta] a long time ago and today they finally came true," Sambi Lokonga said at his unveiling press conference on Monday.
