Versatile Arsenal forward Gilles Sunu has signed a four-year deal with French first division side Lorient, the player confirmed to AFP on Wednesday.

"I've just signed a four-year deal with Lorient. My main aim was to join Lorient so that I can play," he said.

"If I get to play up front I hope to score 10 goals this season. If I'm on the wing, hopefully I'll score a few goals and help create others."

Sunu, 20, was signed by Arsenal as a 15-year-old but was already loaned out to Lorient last season.

The Frenchman recently played for France at the under-20 world championships in Colombia, where he scored two goals.
