Real Zaragoza have completed the signing of Jermaine Pennant after his release by Liverpool.
The former Arsenal youngster passed a medical with the Spanish outfit and will join their bid for survival next season after being promoted back to the Primera Division.
The 26-year-old becomes Zaragoza's first signing of the summer and joins for nothing on a three-year deal.
Pennant told the club's website: "I wanted to come to Spain and I had offers from important teams in Europe but joined Real Zaragoza.
"I really want to get started and do well in the league."
Pennant spent time on loan at Portsmouth last season after being frozen out at Anfield.
The former England U21 winger impressed for Liverpool in the 2007 Champions League final defeat by Milan but found opportunities increasingly limited from then on.

is his smack head father movin there too??
pennant was a very good player it was a mistake 2 let him go just like crouch
stewierulesman,get a life. bet u could'nt even find ur own house
Good luck Pennant but like Kewell he didn't really cut it at Liverpool. We can't afford to give players a lot of time to blend in...
good luck Pennant YNWA
COME ON NUMB NUTS BRING YOUR ZIMMER WITH YOU
Never understood why this lad wasnt given more opportunities to shine. He is a hard worker and quick as hell. Maybe no a gifted player that all managers dream of, but Pennant was an excellent prospect who was never given the right amount of time playing. I wonder if Benni is a little bit racist sometimes
who are these people who say"good luck abroad"and "he's leaving his comfort zone so he can play"and "nice to see an english man going abroad".He's going to Spain for fooks sake,he can be there in less than three hours,and the place is full of English.I've had "regular" jobs in England that have taken longer to get to and when i did get there i've been surrounded by foreigners.
He is the worst player to ever grace the game!
Arsenal will finish 5th this year because Arsene wenger has convinced the board that his philosophies will bring trophies, wot is it they say about cheap labour? Stay wenger, i want your face to be rubbed in with every defeat.
Arsenal reject jail bird
he'll show some ability at Zaragosa,then another club will pick him up on a four year contract,with a huge wage.then he'll go back to being a lazy fooker who doesn't give a @#$%.WELL RID OF HIM.WASTE OF SPACE.
journey man rubbish!!
P1ss head who likes the high-life too much. Gone to a team that expects nothing of him as they are certs to get relegated anyway.
PENNANT IS AVERAGE, A BIG TIE CHARLIE WHO CHOSEN SPAIN DUE TO TAX REASONS JUST LIKE ALL OTHER TRAITORS WHO ONLY EVER CAME TO ENGLAND TO GET RICH. NOW THEY KNOW A 50% TAX IS COMING IN THEY FLEEING LIKE MERCENARIES THEY ARE..
PENNANT WILL BE PLAYING IN THE 1ST DIVISION INSIDE 3 YEARS... HE IS SIMPLY "IN IT FOR THE MONEY"
man city as usual next season get nothing all wiind and pi**b just like that other team in that Sh** hole of a city VIVE REAL MADRID
what i couldn't understand is, why rafa alway deal only with spanish teams
he brough most of the players from there and he sell them to there too
i'm glad for signing johnson but with rafa on the bench no hope of winning epl
he is good in knock out compitetion but weak in league
with the same players we have, if we have hidink or van gaal we would had won epl all the time
My God, what has got into you all. The man is a fool. Banged up, tagged, given a glorious chance at the Reds and he didn't even try and grab it. He is an idiot who thinks that football owes him a living, he will be a nearly man as long as he has got a hole in his @rse. Well rid of that parasite.
Wishing u all the best.Gunners4Life
I think you have whats more commonly known as a right touch!!!
