Samir Nasri has signed a four-year contract with Premier League Arsenal [Images] for a fee of 16.8 million euros ($26.09 million), the France [Images] midfielder's web site said on Monday.

"We inform you that Samir will no longer be an Olympique Marseille player next season and that he has signed a four-year contract with London [Images] club Arsenal," said a statement.

Nasri, 20, has won 12 international caps and was a member of the French team which bowed out of Euro 2008 [Images] after finishing bottom of their group with one point and one goal in three matches.

He made two appearances during the tournament, both as a substitute.
