Arsenal make Bernd Leno transfer decision as Mikel Arteta reshapes squad

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is open to selling Bernd Leno this summer if the Emirates recruitment team can find him a new No.1.

Leno’s form has been good but not great since he arrived three years ago.

And Arteta knows he needs a more consistent goalkeeper if his side are going to challenge for the top four again.

Gunners scouts have been compiling reports on potential targets, with Arteta hoping to bring more stability to his defensive unit.

Germany international Leno joined Arsenal from Bayer Leverkusen in a £22.5million move.

The 29-year-old has made 117 appearances since his switch to the Gunners.

He still has two years to run on the deal he penned in north London and will be available for a similar price, or slightly less, if Arsenal can find a replacement and a buyer for their keeper.
