The Goalkeeper joins the NorthLondon club for a fee reported to be around £3million.
Arsene Wenger said: “David Ospina is an excellent goalkeeper, with good experience and a proven record of performing with Nice and Colombia.
“He will add strength to our squad and we are very pleased that he will be joining us.”
Nice coach Claude Puel had nice words for the Goalkeeper on his big move to the emirates.
“It’s a good affair for Arsenal because he’s a very good player. You will see next season the quality of this player.
“It’s fantastic for him. It’s important for him to try another league, another club and Arsenal is a fantastic club for him.
“David Ospina can take the goalkeeping position at Arsenal because his qualities are very strong and… ‘magnifique’. You saw in the World Cup how important a goalkeeper he is.
“For me, David can impose his quality, he’s a goalkeeper who is very good with the feet, with his arms, he knows football and he’s a very, very good player.”
