Midfielder happy with move
Fran Merida insists he has no regrets about leaving Arsenal and joining Atletico Madrid.
Merida joined Atletico Madrid earlier this summer, after his contract at Arsenal expired.
The 20-year-old managed just six league games for Arsenal, after he joined the Gunners from Barcelona in 2007.
"I'm an Atletico fan and I feel enormously proud to be here," he told
AS.
"Atletico is a big club and so is Arsenal, but there were some circumstances there, particularly on the sporting side, which I wasn't happy with and I couldn't fit in.
"I made Wenger aware of that and as soon as I knew Atletico were interested, I didn't think twice."
