Arsenal quietly confirm first-team call-up for youngster to save millions after latest transfer

Mikel Arteta's mission to have three goalkeepers in his Arsenal squad has continued with the exit of Alex Runarsson.

On Monday evening it was announced via the club's official website that the Iceland international who arrived back in the summer of 2020 is heading out on loan again after spending last season with OH Leuven in Belgium, although this time around he will be playing in Turkey.

"Alex Runarsson has joined Turkish Super Lig side Alanyaspor on a season-long loan," the statement reads. "The 27-year-old goalkeeper joined us in September 2020 from French side Dijon FCO. Everyone at Arsenal wishes Alex all the best this coming season with Alanyaspor."
