Joe Willock is ‘buzzing’ to join Newcastle United and insists it was the ‘right time’ to leave boyhood club Arsenal.
Willock spent well over a decade at the Emirates, first as an academy star and more recently as a first-team player.
‘I’m buzzing to be here,’ Willock told Newcastle’s official website. ‘I loved my time here last season and I’m really happy to be back and to be a Newcastle United player.
‘Leaving Arsenal is obviously a big step, and I’d like to thank everyone involved with the club for all their support over the years, but this is the right move to the right club at the right time for me.
I only got one chance to play in front of a smaller number of Newcastle fans as a home player last season, so I can’t wait to step out in front of a packed St. James’ Park and experience that atmosphere.’
