Arsenal strike Petr Cech deal
Arsenal have finally agreed a deal to sign Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech, according to reports.
The Czech international has been strongly tipped to leave the Blues this summer, having been forced to play second fiddle to Thibaut Courtois for the number one role last season.
The Gunners have been in crunch talks with the Premier League champions in recent weeks, and The Star now claims that the London rivals have come to terms over a transfer fee.
It had been reported earlier that French giants Paris Saint-Germain could hijack Arsenal's bid for Cech, but Blues owner Roman Abramovich has finally signed off on the shot-stopper's move to the Emirates.
Chelsea will seek to bring in a new goalkeeper as back-up in the upcoming month.
