Midfielder training with Arsenal

Santi Cazorla has flown to Germany to take part in pre-season training with Arsenal ahead of his protracted switch from Malaga.

The Spain international has long been expected to complete his big money switch from the La Liga giants, who are suffering financially.

Cazorla is now on course to make his Gunners debut against Cologne on Sunday, along with fellow new recruits Lukas Podolski and Olivier Giroud.
