- Turner’s arrival would clear way for Bernd Leno to leave
- Turner started 13 of his country’s 22 matches last year
Arsenal are in talks with New England Revolution over buying the goalkeeper Matt Turner. If the 27-year-old USA international joins it would clear the way for Bernd Leno to leave.
Personal terms for Turner have been discussed and will not present a stumbling block, so the issue is whether the clubs can agree a fee. Turner has played his whole career in the US and started 13 of his country’s 22 matches last year, with Manchester City’s Zack Steffen his biggest rival for the No 1 spot.
