The 28-year-old will arrive in England with the reputation of being one of Europes deadliest hitmen, having notched an impressive 98 goals in 144 Bundesliga appearances for Dortmund since moving to Germany from French side Saint Etienne in 2013.
He will join up with his former team-mate at the Westfalonstadion, Henrikh Mkhitaryan who joined the Gunners earlier in the window as part of a swap deal that saw Alexis Sanchez move to Manchester United, and the Armenian attacker had this welcome message for the 28-year-old striker.
