A free agent who joined Arsenal's first-team training in midweek has now secured a move to a new club.
The Gunners return to Premier League action on Sunday, when they host an in-form Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Arsenal have made a strong start to the season, collecting 19 points from the opening eight games and opening up a three-point gap over second-placed Manchester City.
They have also impressed in the UEFA Champions League, boasting a perfect record of three wins from three matches.

On Tuesday night, they thrashed Atletico Madrid 4-0, with all four goals coming in a devastating 13-minute spell during the second half.
One player who had been involved in Arsenal's first team training ahead of that clash was Tyreece John-Jules.
The 24-year-old, a graduate of Arsenal's Hale End academy, was released by the club following the expiration of his contract in 2024.

However, he was invited back to join first-team training by his close friend Noni Madueke on Monday, at the Sobha Realty Training Centre.
And just days after training with the Gunners, John-Jules has now secured a move to a new club, signing for Scottish Premiership side Kilmarnock.
On Instagram, the club wrote: "We are delighted to announce the signing of striker Tyreece John-Jules on a short-term deal, pending approval.
"The Arsenal academy product joins until January and has had loan spells at a number of clubs in England and most recently played with Crawley Town.

"The 24-year-old was highly rated by Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta during his time at the Hale End Academy, and he was capped through all the England national team age groups up to Under-21s.
"John-Jules will be eligible for selection for our trip to Ibrox on Sunday."
Madueke posted on Instagram in response to the news, writing "Your time," with a heart emoji.

John-Jules has struggled to establish himself in professional football.
He signed his senior contract in 2018, before joining Unai Emery's squad for pre-season in 2019.
The striker then went on a series of loan moves, playing for Lincoln City, Doncaster Rovers, Blackpool, Sheffield Wednesday, Ipswich Town and Derby County.
He then joined Crawley Town permanently in October 2024, but ended the season without a goal for the League One side.

Crawley were relegated and chose to release him.
His move to Kilmarnock offers an opportunity for regular playing time at a team competing for European football.
Although Kilmarnock have won only two games so far this season, they are fifth in the Scottish Premiership and are just a point behind third-placed Hibernian.
