Report: Joaquin Larrivey closing in on United Arab Emirates move

Argentine forward Joaquin Larrivey is reportedly close to joining an unnamed club in the United Arab Emirates.

The 30-year-old joined Celta Vigo from Rayo Vallecano last summer and struck 11 goals in 35 league appearances for the La Liga outfit.

The striker had been expected to join Norwich City last week, but a move to the Premier League new boys broke down at the last minute.

Now, according to Marca, Larrivey has agreed a deal with a team in Dubai, although the identity of the outfit is not yet clear.

The move is expected to be confirmed this week.
