Arsenal also have secured a resale clause in the agreement. 

"We have never kept it a secret that we would like to see Mika continue in Graz after his incredible performances this spring. 

"We are therefore extremely happy that we have him in place," said Sturm's sporting director, Andreas Schicker. 

Biereth, 21, has signed a contract that runs until 2028.
