Arsenal sign Flamini

The 29-year-old will rejoin the club he left in 2008, having been released by AC Milan earlier this summer, after putting pen to paper on a contract worth £50,000-a-week.

Mathieu Flamini has become an Arsenal player for the second time after signing a two-year contract with the Gunners.

Flamini will be paid £50,000-a-week and that the contract includes an option for a third year.

Flamini will be the second signing of the summer for Arsene Wenger — both free transfers, meanwhile Wenger's top target is Angel Di Maria and he has not given up hope of signing Wayne Rooney, Yohan Cabaye or a new goalkeeper.
