Goalkeeper Petr Cech has finalised his move
The 33-year-old made almost 500 appearances
for the Blues following his arrival from
Rennes 11 years ago, but last season he lost
his place between the posts to Thibaut
Courtois .
He has now moved across London to gain
more regular starting action at the Emirates
Stadium, where he has signed a "long-term
contract".
"I'm really excited about joining Arsenal and
can't wait to join up for pre-season. I have
the same commitment to football, the same
motivation and the same hunger for success
as I had at the beginning of my career, and I
love the challenges brought by the top quality
players you face while playing in the Premier
League," the 33-year-old told the club's
official website
"When Arsene Wenger spoke to me about his
ambitions for this club, and how he saw me as
part of this team, the decision was clear."
It is believed that Arsenal have parted with
around £11m to secure the Czech Republic
international's signature.
