Arsenal, Stoke and Fulham inked deals with new players.

The Gunners announced on Monday that they will sign Lille striker Gervinho.

Stoke picked up free agent Jonathan Woodgate with a one-year contract. Woodgate’s contract with Tottenham expired at the end of the 2011 season.

Fulham signed Hungarian goalkeeper Csaba Sogmoyi after having done a one-week trial at Craven Cottage.

Liga club Valencia, meanwhile, announced it has no intention to sell Juan Mata. Demand for the winger’s services, especially by Arsenal, increased after Spain won the Under-21 Euro Cup in Denmark last month.
