Arsenal winger Marquinhos completes his move to Fluminense.
The 20-year-old forward was loaned out to Nantes last month after expressing his desire to play for Brazil’s Under-23s in the pre-Olympic tournament that concluded on Sunday.
Fluminense will pay a loan fee and could look to make the move permanent in the summer.
