Its Official: Ben Arfa Joins PSG On A 2 Years Deal

League 1 defending champions, Paris Saint-Germain have confirmed the signing of Frenchman, Hatem Ben Arfa on a two-year deal.

Ben Arfa, 29, was out of contract at Nice and the French champions have beaten off competition from a number of European clubs to sign the ex-Newcastle player.

Ben Arfa who scored 17 goals and provided six assists in Ligue 1 for Nice last season, is thrilled to have made the move to the French capital.

"Signing with Paris Saint-Germain is a very happy and a proud moment," Ben Arfa told PSG's official website. "Paris Saint-Germain has always been a very special team for me, so to wear this jersey at the Parc des Princes is a childhood dream.

"It is an honour that the club is giving me this opportunity, making this dream come true. I will do my utmost to represent my new team to the best of my abilities and to make our supporters proud.

"Finally, I would like to thank OGC Nice, who helped me get back to enjoying my football again and gave me another chance to show French fans what I am capable of on the pitch."
