Nasri naar Arsenal.
Nasri completes move to Arsenal
Nasri has been dubbed the new Zinedine Zidane
Arsenal have completed the signing of Marseille midfielder Samir Nasri for an undisclosed fee.
The 21-year-old, who made two appearances as a substitute for France during Euro 2008, has signed a "long-term" contract with the Gunners.
He said: "This is a very important step in my life as a footballer because Arsenal is a massive club."
Manager Arsene Wenger told the club's website: "He is young, quick and technically an outstanding player."
He has shown great potential with his performances for Marseille and the French national team
Arsene Wenger on Nasri
Nasri, who has been dubbed the new Zinedine Zidane, joined Marseille as a nine-year-old and made his league debut during the 2004-2005 season.
He can play on either wing or through the centre and won the French First Division's Young Player of the Year award at the end of the 2006/2007 campaign, as well as being voted Marseille's Player of the Year by supporters.
Last season he scored six goals in 30 games for the French outfit, his final strike in a 4-3 win over Strasbourg helping secure their place in next season's Champions League.
Nasri appeared at various youth international levels for France before winning the first of seven senior caps in 2007.
And he could fill the gap created if Alexander Hleb, whose future remains uncertain after he held talks over a possible move to Barcelona, leaves the club.
Wenger has already lost midfielder Mathieu Flamini, who joined AC Milan on a free transfer, while striker Emmanuel Adebayor remains a target for the Italian giants.
