Nicolas Pepe, a forward for Arsenal, has signed a season-long loan with Nice of Ligue 1. The attacker, who spent his first three seasons at the Emirates Stadium making 111 appearances across all leagues and scoring 27 goals, will team up with fellow former Arsenal Aaron Ramsey.

Before Nice's Europa League play-off second leg match against Maccabi Tel Aviv, where the French team is attempting to overcome a 1-0 deficit, Pepe was introduced to the crowd at the Allianz Riviera.
