Gunners have agreed a fee of
£11million for the veteran goalkeeper, who apparently told Jose Mourinho that
he wanted to make the move across London.
After countless fairly shoddy
Photoshop attempts at mocking up Cech in an Arsenal shirt, fans of north London
side can finally get excited about seeing the 33-year-old at the Emirates next
season.
Cech, who arrives on a
long-term contract, told Arsenal’s official website: ‘I’m really excited about
joining Arsenal Football Club 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.
‘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.’
Interestingly, Cech’s first
official match for the Gunners could be against Chelsea in the Community
Shield.
