Arsenal have completed the signing of Chelsea's Petr Cech, and the goalkeeper could face his former club as soon as August 2 in the Community Shield at Wembley.
Talks over an £11million deal have been ongoing since the season ended and Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has finally made the 33-year-old his first signing of the summer.
Jose Mourinho was reluctant to sell Cech to a direct Barlcays Premier League rival, but the transfer has gone through.
Paris Saint-Germain also formally approached Chelsea about the veteran, but Czech Republic international Cech preferred to stay in London where his family are based.
Cech's arrival means either Wojciech Szczesny or David Ospina, who is wanted by Fenerbahce, is likely to leave this summer.
It also means Chelsea goalkeeping coach Christophe Lollichon could follow Cech to Arsenal.

Rare congratulations to Arsenal from me, no keeper in the league last season was better than he was the season before. Has the positioning of Lloris, arial presence of Courtious and shot stopping consistency of DDG. Fantastic player.
