Arsenal have confirmed the permanent transfer of Kristoffer Olsson on Tuesday morning.
The youngster started with the club's youth academy before making it to the first team in 2013. He was used in Arsenal's Capital One Cup game against Westbrom last season. We won that game on penalties and Olsson contributed to that triumph having scored in a shoot-out.
The 19-year-old Swedish international was sent on loan to Midtjylland in September 2014 but as we speak, he has ceased to be an Arsenal player for he has made a complete switch.
Confirming the move today, the club's website stated as follows:
“Kristoffer Olsson has completed a permanent move to FC Midtjylland, where he has been on loan since September.”
“The 19-year-old midfielder featured six times in the league for the Danish club during his loan spell.”
“A Swedish youth international, Olsson made one first-team appearance for the Gunners, when he netted a penalty in the shoot-out win over West Bromwich Albion in the League Cup last season.
“Olsson also captained Arsenal’s under-19s to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Youth League in 2013/14.
“Everyone at Arsenal would like to thank Kristoffer for his contribution to the club, and to wish him well for the future,” the club added.
