Petr Čech Arrives Arsenal For Medical

Petr Cech is set to undergo a medical on Friday before completing a move to Arsenal next week after the Gunners agreed a fee with Chelsea for the veteran goalkeeper as he tends to end his 11-year stay at Stamford Bridge.

The Czech Republic international has already agreed personal terms with the north Londoners and is on the verge of ending his 11-year association with the Blues.

Despite having just one year left on his contract, Chelsea hope to receive as much as £15 million (€21m) for the 33-year-old, who was desperate for first-team football after being usurped by Thibaut Courtois.

Jose Mourinho is believed to be against the idea of allowing Cech to join a rival, but the final decision lay with Roman Abramovich who sanctioned the move due to his friendship with the keeper and out of respect for his long and successful career at Stamford Bridge.

Petr Čech is a Czech footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Premier League club Chelsea and the Czech Republic national team. Čech previously played for Chmel Blšany, Sparta Prague, and Rennes.

Cech has claimed the Premier League, an FA Cup, Champions League and Europa League titles withChelsea since joining from Rennes in 2004.

With the latest development, Arsenal now wont hesitate to offload their #2 shoot stopper David Ospinadespite his late form with the gunners last season.  The Colombian who began his career at Atlético Nacional has been heavily linked to Turkish side Fenerbahce in the past couple of days.
