Arsenal have announced the signing of France u-20 midfielder Matteo Guendouzi from Lorient for an undisclosed fee thought to be in the region of £7m.
The former PSG youth product becomes Arsenal's fifth signing of the summer transfer window after Uruguayan international Lucas Torreira's signing was confirmed on Tuesday.
Speaking of his move to the North London club, the 19 year old told the club's website thus;
"I want to become part of the club's history and to achieve great things here,"
"Arsenal have always been the team closest to my heart and a side I've wanted to join since I was a child."
The club's manager welcomed to the club with these words:
"[Guendouzi] has big potential and gained good first team experience last season with Lorient,"
"He wants to learn and improve and will be an important part of our first-team squad."
Standing at over 6ft 2in, he made a total of 30 appearances for the Lorient first team.
