Arsenal have signed 17-year-old Bolivian midfielder Samuel Galindo from Club America for an undisclosed fee.  However, due to work permit issues, Galindo will be loaned out to a Spanish team.  Confirming the capture, Arsene Wenger said, ” I’m looking to send him out on loan.  We have a few clubs in mind. Galindo is a player who has good technique. He’s intelligent, 6ft 2ins tall, left-footed with good stamina. He is a central midfielder who can give good balls. He has good vision too which we like here.” The Bolivian Under-20 international was close to joining Premier League rivals Everton, however, he chose to join Arsenal following a trial.  “It’s true that he was at Everton but he was offered to come to me on trial.  “I said yes, I liked what I saw and I signed him,” Wenger said.
