Arsenal are considering approaching Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga to guard the goal.
The 30-year-old goalkeeper moved to guard the goal for Bournemouth last season. It is expected that he will be ready to move with a fee of only 5 million pounds.
At first, “The Cherries” seemed to sign him permanently, but in the end. They reduced their interest, giving “The Gunners” a chance this time.
Arsenal had held interest in the Espanyol goalkeeper Joan Garcia. But the 24-year-old now seems likeliest to end up at Barcelona. That prompted the Gunners to consider other options before settling on Kepa.
Kepa spent last season on loan from Chelsea at Bournemouth, where he was the club’s first-choice goalkeeper. Prior to that, he spent the 2023/24 season on loan at Real Madrid once it became clear he did not have a future at Chelsea.
The goalkeeper position is up in the air this summer at Chelsea but it is understood that Kepa, formerly the club’s first-choice keeper, was never a viable option to reclaim that role.
Arsenal had previously expressed interest in wanting Joan Garcia of Espanyol, but he chose to move to Barcelona.
