Brazilian forward Wellington Silva does not think that he will struggle to adapt to the Premier League when he moves to Arsenal in January.

The 17-year-old has agreed a deal to join Arsene Wenger's Gunners when he turns 18 and is allowed to leave Fluminense for a foreign club.

Wellington has already had reserve team and friendly outings for Arsenal during a month of training and he is confident that he will not struggle at Emirates Stadium.

"The experience in London was perfect," he said in the Daily Mirror.

"I can now dream of playing in the Premier League and I don't think it will be hard for me to adapt.

"Mr Wenger has spoken with me and has helped me with my work and training. I am really looking forward to this challenge. It's a great opportunity for me in my career."
