Footbalಞl London’s Chris Wheatley has♒ revealed that Arsenal have agreed personal terms with New England Revolution goalkeeper Matt Turner ahead of a potential move.

The Gunners are now on the market looking for a♔ new goalkeeper after reports rev💧ealed that Bernd Leno could leave the club this month.

Th🎉e German international lost his place to Aaron Ramsdale after just three games this season and it doesn’t look like he’ll get it back. As a result, he wants to move on before the window shuts to boost his chances of making it to the World Cup in Qatar at 🧸the end of this year.

Arsenal are꧃ set to grant Leno his wish and Turner, 27, is set to be his re♔placement.

TBR View:

Arsenal will need🍸 a new goalkeeper if Leno is allowed to leave and Turner, even though he has no experience at the top level in Europe, would not be a bad signing.

Ramsdale🍌 is going to remain the undisputed number one at Arsenal irrespective of what happens. The En♉glishman has been absolutely incredible since he came into the side back in September and he will only get better in the coming years.

Arsenal only need a backup who is good e🌞nough to step in whenever required. Turner, hailed as ‘‘ by his b𝔍oss Bruce Arena, can be that player and if Wheatley is to be believed, he is more than ready to make the move to North London.

Edu and Arteta should be able to wrap this deal up very quickly, which would then open the door for Leno to make his way out of the ﷽club.
