Petr Cech has been unveiled by Arsenal after Arsene Wenger finally made his long-term target their first summer signing for £10million from Chelsea.

The Czech Republic goalkeeper passed his medical at Arsenal on Friday.

Cech moves to north London on a four-year contract, understood to be worth about £100,000 per week, and could make his debut against his former club on August 2 in the Community Shield.

Arsenal boss Wenger told the club's official website that he was 'very pleased' to have signed 'one of the outstanding keepers in the world.'

'Petr Cech is a player that I have admired for a long time and I am very pleased that he has decided to join us,' said Wenger. 'He has proven over many seasons that he is one of the outstanding keepers in the world and he will add great strength to our squad.'

Cech explained that it was Wenger's ambition, and the promise of first-team football, that attracted him.

'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.'
