北京时间8月30日晚，阿森纳俱乐部在其官网宣布，球队已经与摩纳哥达成协议，该队前锋朴周永即将正式加盟阿森纳。
在整个夏天的转会市场上，阿森纳已经引进热尔维尼奥、简金森、张伯伦、坎贝尔四名球员，但是核心球员法布雷加斯重返巴萨、纳斯里叛逃曼城，兵工厂实力受到极大影响。温格之前也确认，阿森纳三条线都需要进补。法国权威媒体《队报》3天报道称，摩纳哥的韩国朴周永几乎确定加盟阿森纳，在30日晚，阿森纳官方也确认，俱乐部就朴周永的转会与摩纳哥达成一致，朴周永只需要完成在英超的注册手续，就将正式成为枪手一员。
上个赛季摩纳哥从法甲降级，在该队效力三年之久的朴周永代表球队出战91次，打进25球。有意思的是，朴周永原本决定和法甲里尔队签署一份为期三年的合同，摩纳哥和里尔就朴周永的转会已经达成一致协议，相关转会细节也已谈妥。但令人意想不到的是，朴周永在前往里尔接受体检之后竟然私自离开。阿森纳的突然介入，让韩国国脚决定转投英超。
温格表示：“我们很高兴能够签下朴周永，他能为球队进攻提供很大帮助，我相信他能证明自己的价值。”朴周永则表示：“能够来到阿森纳是一种光荣，我感到很开心。成为阿森纳球员是值得荣耀的，我只想证明自己是很出色的。我将会用心、竭尽所能，希望得到球迷的支持。”
阿森纳官方还表示，朴周永正式成为阿森纳球员，还需要完成注册手续。不过阿森纳已经将9号战袍交给了韩国人，，尽管朴周永的英文名字是Chu Young Park，但韩国人更喜欢“Ju”，因此在他的球衣上将会印上“J. Y. Park ”。

Arsenal to sign striker Chu Young Park
Arsenal Football Club can confirm they have agreed to sign striker Chu Young Park from AS Monaco.
The 26-year-old South Korea captain scored 25 times in 91 appearances for the French club during three seasons in Ligue 1.
The one-time Asian Young Footballer of the Year made his debut for the South Korea senior side at just 19, and played in both the 2006 and 2010 World Cups. He replaced the retired Ji Sung Park as captain of the national team earlier this year.
Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger said: “We are delighted to have signed Chu. He will add true quality to our attacking forces and will be a valuable addition to the squad.”
Chu Young Park said: "I am very honoured and I feel very happy to be at Arsenal. It is a dream to be here and I am really proud to be an Arsenal player. Now I just want to show how good I am and prove myself.
"In my opinion this is a great club, now I have to show what I can do on the pitch. I will do my best, I will never give up, I will show heart, I will give everything and I hope [the fans] will support me."
The deal is subject to the completion of formal registration processes.
Chu Young Park will wear the No 9 shirt at Arsenal. The striker prefers to be known as 'Ju' and will therefore have J. Y. Park as his shirt name.
