Smith Rowe, who has made 15 competitive appearances for Arsenal in the Europa League, Premier League and cup competitions, has previously enjoyed a spell in Germany with RB Leipzig.
Huddersfield boss Danny Cowley said: Were delighted to complete the loan move to bring Emile to the Club today, as its the culmination of an ongoing process that began in early November.
Nicky and I spent a week at Arsenal in the summer and Emile is a player that we know well. Weve got some good relationships with the Club and were very appreciative of them loaning us one of their very best young players.
Emile will give us the creative link that weve been missing. He can play in a range of attacking positions and he can speed up our play. Were really looking forward to working with him.
Smith Rowe will wear the No.32 shirt for the Terriers.
He goes straight into the squad for tomorrow’s crunch Yorkshire derby clash at Barnsley.
Huddersfield are currently seven points clear of their rivals and sit five above the drop zone.
