Arsenal have completed the signing of goalkeeper Petr Cech from London rivals Chelsea on a long-term contract for an undisclosed fee.

The 33-year-old completed his medical on Friday and has now signed a £100,000-a-week contract, immediately making him one of the club's highest earners alongside Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez.

The £11 million capture of Cech represents Arsenal's first signing of the summer, though Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho had been hugely reluctant to allow the veteran goalkeeper to join a rival.

Mourinho was keen to retain Cech as backup to Thibaut Courtois, but owner Roman Abramovich wanted to show respect for the Czech's 11 years of distinguished service so ceded to his wishes for first-team football as well as his desire to keep his young family in London.
