The goalkeeping department was never an area many expected Arsenal to be focusing their efforts on this January and whilst the club remains interested in signing a midfielder and striker, their closest deal looks to be for the man between the sticks.
Arsenal have reportedly stepped up their pursuit of New England Revolution and USMNT goalkeeper Matt Turner. The stopper, now 27, would come in and compete for a place with the senior group after several attempts to find a suitable number two concluded in the summer of 2021 with the signing of a new number one instead.
Aaron Ramsdale fit much more of what Mikel Arteta was looking for in a goalkeeper and his passing attributes reflected that. Meanwhile, Bernd Leno has been guilty of high-profile errors in his passing game leading to opposition goals.
