Cech on the verge of completing move

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech has been undergoing a medical ahead of his proposed move to Arsenal.

Cech, 33, has agreed personal terms with the Gunners and is set to leave Chelsea for around £11m after 11 years at Stamford Bridge.

Since arriving from Rennes in 2004, he has made more than 300 appearances for the Blues, keeping an incredible 162 clean sheets as well as winning four Premier League titles, four FA Cups, three League Cups, the Champions League and the Europa League.

However, there have been doubts about his future at the club since he was displaced as first-choice keeper by Thibaut Courtois.

Cech, who has one year remaining on his Chelsea contract, made only 16 appearances for them last season.

Meanwhile, Kia Joorabchian, who acts as an adviser to Oscar, has told the Italian media there is no prospect of the player leaving Chelsea despite him being linked with Juventus.
