'I was glad to quit Arsenal for Dinamo - but now I have no club after ripping up my deal' Arsenal are set to face Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Wednesday - two teams Robbie Burton knows all too familiarly.
The 25-year-old spent 14 years in Arsenal's youth set-up between 2006 and 2020, working his way up to captain at the U23 level and even impressing first-team manager Unai Emery thanks to a recommendation from Freddie Llungberg.
While Burton showed a wealth of promise to one day break into the Arsenal first team or even represent the Welsh national team, it simply wasn't meant to be.
He parted ways with Arsenal in 2020 to explore other avenues, joining Dinamo Zagreb in a reported £800,000 transfer.
The central midfielder initially signed a professional contract with the Croatian capital's B-Team in the Druga NHL before soon after making his way into the first team.
