Arsenal legend Santi Cazorla plays role of Gandalf in incredible announcement video....after agreeing huge pay cut to rejoin boyhood club Real Oviedo

Former Arsenal favourite Santi Cazorla took on the role of Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings as it was announced that he had re-signed for boyhood club Real Oviedo.

The 38-year-old has signed a one-year contact with Oviedo after leaving Qatari club Al Sadd.

The midfield magician caught the eye in his announcement video as he reprised the role of the legendary wizard Gandalf.

Riding a horse and cart containing memorabillia from his 20-year playing career, Cazorla is approached by a young girl wearing an Oviedo shirt who tells him he is 'late'.
