As the final details are being completed, those in North London are already whipping up a sense of anticipation around their incoming star player.
Reacting to the two-minute clip that has tens of thousands of views one Arsenal supporter said: “Bernardo Silva esque.”
Another somewhat ambitiously added: “I can confirm after watching this two minute and 13 second clip that Fabio Vieira is the greatest Portuguese player of all time.”
And a third said: “He is class. I looked at him. Lacks a bit of physicality but I can work with this! Love him.”

Another buzzing Arsenal fan said: “Those through balls 
. He can play them on the ground, lob them and literally cross and shoot from anywhere.
“Love his versatile profile as well. Typical Arteta/Pep type of a player.
“Can help fill a lot of voids and add depth across the midfield and wings. So excited!!”
Vieira scored 10 goals and provided 18 assists in 76 appearances for Porto.
