After weeks and weeks of speculation, Arsenal are to announce their signing of Petr Cech from Chelsea for a reported fee of £11million at the start of the next week. The Chelsea goalkeeper, thus, becomes their first summer signing.

The 33-year-old had reportedly undergone a medical on Friday ahead of his potential move before putting pen to the staggering £100,000-a-week contract that would make him the fifth highest earner amongst goalkeepers.

The move has apparently come to fruition against the decision of Jose Mourinho, who openly claimed that he would not let his talisman join arch-nemeses Arsenal.

Nevertheless, Roman Abramovich was generous enough to reward the Chelsea legend with the liberty to choose his employers for his eleven fruitful years at Stamford Bridge.

David Ospina is all set to face the at Arsenal as an aftermath of the announcement with the Colombian all but set to move to Fenerbahce, where he would be regarded as an automatic starter once again.

Christophe Lollichon, who has been mentoring Petr Cech since his Rennes days, is expected to follow in his footsteps shortly after the deal is made official.

Wojciech Szczesny, besides being an understudy to the Czech Republic international, will have the opportunity to learn the ins-and-outs trade from the duo.

According to his coach, the nascent Arsenal goalkeeper still has four great seasons in him and Arsene Wenger can enjoy some comfort having added yet another world-class player to his dressing room for having added yet another world-class player to his dressing room.
