Arsenal winger Marquinhos drops into Championship with Norwich on loan

However, his first-team involvement has mainly been limited to cup competitions, scoring on his Gunners debut in the Europa League against Zurich in September.

He joins Norwich with the club sixth in the Championship in their bid to make an instant return to the top flight.

"I've learnt a lot as part of my adaptation here in England. It's totally different to Brazil," he told Norwich's website. "It's more intensive but I'm adapting well in order to help Norwich.

"I'm also really happy to get to know a new club, a new culture and a new city. The fans can expect that I'll show desire."
