Arsenal complete Portugese signing

Arsenal have completed the signing of French midfielder Amaury Bischoff.

The Portugese Under-21 international has joined Samir Nasri and Aaron Ramsey as new recruits in manager Arsène Wenger's summer spending spree.

The French-born Portugal Under-21 international, 21, was a youngster with French clubs SR Colmar and Strasbourg before moving to Werder Bremen in 2005.

Bischoff, who can play either in the centre of midfield or on the right, was a regular at youth levels for Werder Bremen and made just one senior appearance for the German club.

Amaury has played for France's Under-18 team, however in 2007 he elected to train with Portugal and to date has appeared for their Under-21 side.

well just a question, Are we about to see some more professionals or will it just stop at Samir Nasri?
These kids cant win stuff. I mean I dont believe in age so much like Chelsea but experience is needed everywhere.

This is a joke signing, hes 21 and only played 15 minutes of first team football. Arshavin or Barry, no lets buy Bishoff instead.

arsenal at this critical stage, need an experienced central midfielder. the palyers and fans have decried this fact. gettin one or two experience into the team will not prevent arsenal from paying her debts. so many things are at stake, many more players may leave if nothing is done about this.

While this signing may be good for Arsenal's future build up, I still feel a strong and experience defensive midfielder should be signed to help biff up the midfield and as well serve as cover for the defence line.

Not sure why we would sign a severely injury prone player ?? i know he is on a free but to have many groin operations at a young age does not seem to great long-term. I know he is on a free, he has less experience than half our kids, and he is 21. I hope Arsene knows on this one !!
