Arsenal star reveals he first heard about his deadline day exit online from a viral transfer post - and 'refused to say goodbye' when team-mates questioned why he was still training

An former Arsenal star who left the club in the summer has revealed he learned of his exit via a viral social media post.

It was a busy summer of business for the Gunners, who are looking to finally get the better of their title rivals and win the Premier League after coming third three years in a row.

They signed a number of players to try and help bolster their chances of that happening, including the likes of Viktor Gyokeres, Eberechi Eze and Martin Zubimendi.

There were also some outgoings, however.
