France centre-back Laurent Koscielny has signed a new long-term contract at Arsenal, the Premier League club said on Tuesday.
“Laurent has been outstanding for us over the last two seasons,” Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger told the club’s website.
“When you consider that until 2009 he was playing in Ligue 2 in France and that he is now performing at the very top level in the Premier League and for his country, the development that he has shown has been absolutely exceptional.
“Laurent is a top-class player and I am very pleased he has decided to commit his future to the club.”
