The arrival of Marquinos from Sao Paulo has been announced by Arsenal.

The Gunners have signed the 19-year-old to a long-term deal.

Marquinhos grew up in the Sao Paulo development system before breaking into the first-team squad and made his debut in July at the age of 18 years old.

During his stint with Sao Paulo, he made 33 first-team appearances and was a member of the club that won the Campeonato Paulista in 2021.

Marquinhos will fly to London from Brazil in the coming weeks to begin pre-season training with his new colleagues.

“We’re thrilled to have finalized the trade with Sao Paulo, as Marquinhos was a player we had been monitoring for a while,” Edu, Technical Director, said. He is still a young player at 19, therefore he is a guy to watch in the future. We’re excited for Marquinhos to join us for pre-season, find his new home, and continue to develop and evolve with us.”
