Arsenal legend Santi Cazorla completed a fairytale swansong with his hometown club Real Oviedo as they returned to LaLiga after a 24-year absence.
Cazorla, 40, gained legendary status at the Emirates after playing 180 times for the club between 2012 and 2018, during a period in which he won two FA Cups.
The attacking midfielder, who has also played for the likes of Villarreal and Malaga, originally came through the youth ranks at Oviedo before joining Villarreal aged 17.
He returned to the club in 2023 after a three-year spell in Qatar and on Saturday he kick-started a dramatic comeback as Oviedo won the LaLiga 2 play-off final.
