Arsenal have managed to take advantage of a row between Feyenoord and Salah Oulad M'Hand's family to snap up the teen.
Arsenal announced the signing of the 17 year-old midfielder on Saturday morning.
Oulad M'Hand and his 15 year-old brother Ismail both left Feyenoord in February after a reported bust-up between club management and their father, says Kuiptalk via Voetbalzone. It was alleged the family lost faith in the plans Feyenoord management had for both Salah and Ismail.
After several rounds of discussions, it was decided by the Oulad M'Hand family to remove both sons from the academy.
There was talk of attacking midfielder Salah signing for Ajax, however he has opted for Arsenal.
Oulad M'Hand started his early career with the amateurs of VCS in The Hague and ended up in the youth academy of Feyenoord in 2012.
Now known in England as 'Salah', Oulad M'Hand will join up with Arsenal's 'Professional Development Phase' setup ahead of the new season.
