Former Arsenal star Santi Cazorla has confirmed that he will be linking up with Barcelona legend Xavi at Al Sadd following his departure from Villarreal.
The 35-year-old has enjoyed a remarkable renaissance in his career over the last couple of years.
Injury struggles had blighted the end of his time at Arsenal, with an achilles problem keeping him stuck on the sidelines for 636 days.
He left north London in 2018 and was handed an emotional return to Villarreal for a third spell at the Liga club.
Cazorla rediscovered form and fitness back in familiar surroundings, with 11 goals and 10 assists recorded in the 2019-20 campaign.
