( CNN ) -- Croatia striker Eduardo has left English club Arsenal to join Ukrainian champions Shakhtar Donetsk , both teams confirmed on Wednesday . The 27-year-old scored 20 goals in 67 appearances for the London outfit , but his impact was hampered after suffering a serious leg break in February 2008 . Eduardo signed a new long-term contract in November , but the Brazil-born player was allowed to leave for an undisclosed fee as he joined 2009 UEFA Cup winners Shakhtar on a four-year deal . The signing of Marouane Chamakh from French club Bordeaux in May left Eduardo down the pecking order at Arsenal , who also have World Cup stars Robin Van Persie and Nicklas Bendtner to call upon up front . `` Eduardo 's recovery from his injury sustained at Birmingham City in February 2008 is a testament to his strength as a human being , and this character and determination will be missed by everyone associated at Arsenal , '' the club said in a statement on its website . `` Everyone at Arsenal would like to thank Eduardo for his contribution towards the club and wishes him the best of luck for the future . '' Meanwhile , Arsenal 's Premier League rivals Liverpool continued rebuilding under new manager Roy Hodgson with the signing of defender Danny Wilson from Scottish champions Rangers . The center-back , 18 , agreed a three-year contract in a deal which could be worth up to $ 7.5 million to the cash-strapped Glasgow side , who have now lost seven players ahead of the new season . Liverpool also unveiled England midfielder Joe Cole , who joined on a free transfer earlier this week after his contract at double winners Chelsea expired . European champions Inter Milan signed Andrea Ranocchia from Genoa for an undisclosed fee on a five-year contract , but the 22-year-old central defender will be loaned back to the Serie A club for the new season . The Italian league winners also sent young striker Mattia Destro on loan to Genoa as part of the deal . It was a busy day for Genoa , who sold Greece 's World Cup defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos to AC Milan for a reported $ 5.7 million on a five-year contract . The 22-year-old was new Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri 's first signing since replacing Leonardo . Allegri also tied up veteran former Italy fullback Massimo Oddo , 34 , to a new one-year contract , while Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi told reporters that former Brazil star Ronaldinho was not for sale .
