Arsenal swoop for Monaco forward Park Chu-young

Arsenal have completed the signing of striker Park Chu-young from French Ligue 1 side Monaco.

The 26-year-old had looked poised to sign for French champions Lille before Wednesday’s transfer deadline, but Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed South Korea international Chu passed a medical with them this past weekend.

Wenger told the club’s official website: “We are delighted to have signed Chu.

“He will add true quality to our attacking forces and will be a valuable addition to the squad.”

Chu said: “I am very honoured and I feel very happy to be at Arsenal.

“It is a dream to be here and I am really proud to be an Arsenal player. Now I just want to show how good I am and prove myself.

“In my opinion this is a great club, now I have to show what I can do on the pitch.

“I will do my best, I will never give up, I will show heart, I will give everything and I hope (the supporters) will support me.”

Chu’s agent, Maurizio Morana, has revealed the lure of joining the Gunners had been too much for his client to ignore, and hit back at the criticism levelled at the player by former suitors Lille.

Morana told France Football: “On Friday, Arsenal contacted Monaco to know if an agreement had been made with Lille about a transfer.

“As it was not the case, Arsenal started to negotiate and then asked to contact the player.

“Could you imagine how a player from Monaco could refuse such a club?

“As he should come back to his native Korea later in 2013 for military duties, this could be his last contract in Europe.

“When Arsene Wenger directly calls a player and asks him to join Arsenal, it is difficult to refuse.

“We are sorry for the Lille officials who acted in a very professional way, but I can't agree when I hear Park has no sense of morals.”
