Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has advised new signing Eberechi Eze to hit the ground running at the club.
Tottenham were leading the race to sign Eze, but their north London rivals hijacked the move at the end of last week and quickly agreed to a deal with Palace.
Eze became Mikel Arteta’s seventh summer signing and will hope to take Arsenal closer to ending their long wait for a Premier League title.
In a chat with the club’s website, Henry expressed his delight at Arsenal’s move for Eze and encouraged the new Gunners signing to ‘make it count’.

‘First and foremost, welcome to the Arsenal,’ Henry told Arsenal’s official website. ‘You don’t understand how happy we all are.
‘We all know how much you wanted to play for The Arsenal, and wear the cannon at the Emirates. There you go – it’s not a dream anymore, it’s not a utopia. That has become reality. Make sure that you make it count.
‘Remember, when I first arrived at the Arsenal, they told me that it is a club that has class, it’s a family club, and you got to fight no matter what.
‘All the very best, I’m so happy. Come on The Arsenal!’
