The former Atletico Madrid man is set to move to the Premier League

Former Atletico Madrid winger Yannick Carrasco is set to return to Europe by signing for Premier League side Arsenal this summer. 

Unai Emery's Arsenala moved for him in January before eventually signing Denis Suarez on loan from Barcelona. Now, though, they're confident of signing him from Chinese side Dalian Yifang. 

"Negotiations are going well," the Belgium international said. "I am aware that I am an important player for the team but I hope they let me leave. From a personal and family point of view, I would like to return to Europe. 

"The Premier League is more physical, but there are also a lot of spaces to run into."
