Arsenal have signed Swedish forward Nikolaj Moller from Malmo - a player nicknamed after Zlatan Ibrahimovic at one of his former clubs.

The 18-year-old joined on Monday ahead of the transfer deadline with Arsenal paying around £450,000 for him.

Moller has agreed a four-year contract at the Emirates Stadium and will play in Steve Bould's under-23 squad rather than Mikel Arteta's first team for the time being.
