Unai Emery signing admits he spent his time at Arsenal wishing he could leave

Real Madrid midfielder Dani Ceballos has confessed he wanted to leave Arsenal soon after joining the Gunners on loan during Unai Emery's reign as manager.

With Emery at the helm, Arsenal landed Ceballos' signature on loan in the summer of 2019. Few Gunners fans could forget his stunning debut against Burnley at home, which saw the Spaniard earn comparisons with Emirates favourite Santi Cazorla after just one game.
