Jurrien Timber completed his move to the Emirates last week.
The Dutch defender has ignored a move to Old Trafford to seal his transfer to Arsenal this summer.
The Gunners have reportedly paid a €40m fee for the Dutch defender who will wear the No.12 shirt.
He has been on the radar of several Premier League clubs including Manchester United and Newcastle United.
Timber explained why he chose to join Arsenal as he had several other options.
“To be honest, I had some options but Arsenal was the only one I chose,” he told football.london.
“It is a beautiful club. Look at last year. Of course, the previous years were beautiful but last year you saw a major step. The team grows and I want to be a part of it.
“Sometimes it is just a feeling. The way they play, the way I talk with the trainer. I just had a good feeling with it. We have a strong team. Expectations are high because they had a great season last season and they bought some players. Let’s see what we can do.”
