Defender signs four-year deal at the Riverside
Middlesbrough have completed the signing of defender Justin Hoyte from Arsenal.
The Gunners accepted a bid of £3million from Boro earlier in the week and Hoyte has now put pen-to-paper on a four-year contract.
Gareth Southgate moved for the 23-year-old after allowing Luke Young to join Aston Villa.
With Bacary Sagna firmly established at right-back at the Emirates Stadium, Arsene Wenger was happy to let Hoyte head out for a new challenge.
The former England Under-21 international has now passed a medical and agreed personal terms.
He will be presented to the Middlesbrough crowd ahead of their Premier League opener against Tottenham Hotspur.
