Gunners seal Koscielny deal
Arsenal have signed defender Laurent Koscielny from French side Lorient.
The 24-year-old moves to north London on a long-term contract for an undisclosed fee, the Premier League club announced.
Manager Arsene Wenger told Arsenal's official website: "Koscielny is a central defender with great ability who performed extremely well last season for Lorient.
"We identified him as a very strong centre-half, who has made big progress very quickly.
"He has shown he is mentally strong, he's a fighter and a very strong competitor. Koscielny is a great addition to our squad."
