Former Arsenal youngster Arinse Uade joins Norwich City

Norwich City have completed the signing of defender Arinse Uade.

The young defender has been without a permanent club since he left the Arsenal academy in 2014.

However, having impressed during a recent trial period at Carrow Road, Uade has agreed terms to join Norwich's Under-21 side.

"I'm very pleased because it's been a little while since I left Arsenal to get back into this level of football," he told the club's official website.

"The lads have made me feel part of the group already. That's made it easier for me, and I've had a couple of games at Carrow Road as well which felt a bit surreal. I just want to kick on now and make the most of the opportunity by playing well for the Under-21s."

Uade featured in the development squad's recent wins over Manchester United and Southampton.
