Arshavin officially joins Arsenal


Andrey Arshavin has joined Arsenal from Zenit St. Petersburg on a long-term contract for an undisclosed fee reports to be around 17 million pound. The 27-year-old Russian was so determined to bring football's longest-running saga to and end that he hired a plane to beat the British winter and sign a 70,000 pound-a-week contract at the Emirates until 2012. Arshavin will wear the number 23 shirt for the Gunners and could make his Arsenal debut in this weekend's north London derby against relegation-threatened Tottenham Hotspur.
