Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang vowed to become an Arsenal "legend" as the Gunners captain ended speculation over his future by signing a new three-year contract on Tuesday.
Aubameyang's contract saga had dragged on since last season amid speculation he wanted to join a club in the Champions League.
But the Gabon forward revealed he had committed his future to Arsenal in a live Instagram stream from the Emirates Stadium.
The deal is reported to be worth £250,000-per-week ($321,000), with bonuses that could take it beyond £350,000-per-week contract of the club's highest earner Mesut Ozil.
"Arsenal fans, finally as you know I just signed the thing," Aubameyang said.
Arsenal confirmed the news themselves on their website in a statement that said: "Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has signed a new three-year contract with us!"
After scoring the goals that fired Arsenal to last season's surprise FA Cup semi-final and final victories over Manchester City and Chelsea, Aubameyang had refused to confirm he wanted to stay at the north London club.
At one stage last term, the 31-year-old admitted he faced a big decision over his future, fuelling reports that he was ready to leave amid interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona.
But Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta remained confident Aubameyang was happy at the club and wanted to stay.
Over 100,000 people were watching the announcement via the official Arsenal Instagram account as Aubameyang pledged to follow in the footsteps of Gunners greats like Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Ian Wright.
"Everybody knows how special this club is, I have seen incredible players, passionate players, Invincible players," Aubameyang said.
"I dream of being one of them, amongst the best, and staying in the hearts of the fans forever.
"I want to become an Arsenal legend just like Thierry, Wrighty, Adams and Bergkamp - too many to mention.
"My dad is my biggest inspiration, he was captain of his club and his country so it means so much to me to be the captain of this special club.
"I want to leave a legacy, this is where I belong, this is my family."
