Arsenal set to sign Petr Cech replacement

Spanish publication Marca, as cited by Metro, is claiming that Arsenal are keeping close tabs on the 24-year-old goalkeeper as new boss Unai Emery looks to sign a new safe hand this summer window.

The goalie has been a regular starter in the Sevilla side over the last four seasons and the Gunners have allegedly expressed an interest in landing him this summer window.

Unai Emery knows the goalkeeper already because he worked with him during his spell at Sevilla.

Further reinforcement expected at Arsenal

The North Londoners are thought to be in the market for a new safe hand this summer window, with Czech international Petr Cech approaching the last lap of his career at the age of 36.

The same article says that rivals Watford are also keen on making a move for the goaltender this summer window.

The Gunners confirmed their first recruit of the Unai Emery era during the week when they sealed a move to land experienced right-back Stephan Lichtsteiner from Serie A Champions Juventus.
