Arsenal are about to welcome a new goalkeeper to north London for a second straight summer, with Matt Turner set to provide competition to Aaron Ramsdale between the sticks.
Turner has said his goodbyes to New England Revolution, where he has spent his entire professional career, and is set for a Gunners medical before joining up with his new teammates for pre-season. The 27-year-old played more than 100 Major League Soccer games for the Revs, and could find himself starting for the United States against England at the upcoming Qatar World Cup.
Brad Friedel was the Revs manager back in 2018 when Turner made his MLS debut, and is uniquely placed to give his verdict on the highly-rated keeper. And the 51-year-old, who made 450 Premier League appearances during his career, has backed his compatriot to find his feet.
