According Corriere dello Sport in Italy, Arsenal are interested in getting the signature of Atalanta goalkeeper Marco Carnesecchi in the next transfer window.
The London heavyweights signed David Raya permanently from Brentford last summer after a solid season on loan. The Spaniard has been exceptional with his performances this campaign, but Corriere dello Sport They claim that the club is looking at another goalkeeper, who can offer fierce competition for places.
The Italian outlet cites that the Gunners are very interested in signing Carnesecchi, who has played a major role in taking Atalanta to the top of Serie A. It could be necessary to pay between £33 and £41 million to persuade the european league starters to part ways with the highly-rated goalkeeper in the next window.
French champions Paris Saint-Germain are also monitoring Carnesecchi's performances and Gianluigi Donnarumma's future is in doubt. The Parisian giants could wait until the summer to approach the Italian ace.
Unlikely
Arsenal have one of the best goalkeepers in the world. first division in the shape of a stripe. The 29-year-old made some notable mistakes in his debut campaign but has looked much more confident in goal since his permanent transfer.
The former Brentford player has made several world-class saves during the campaign and may not be displaced from the number one spot any time soon. As a result, the link with Carnesecchi is a surprise ahead of the January transfer window.
Arsenal signed Neto on loan from Bournemouth last summer, but he is yet to make his debut for the Gunners. The Brazilian was tied in the Carabao Cup and could make his debut in the Cup FA Cup against manchester united next month.
It would be a big surprise if Neto left in the same winter transfer market. Even if that happens, Arsenal's board may not approve spending between £33m and £41m on Carnesecchi to play a supporting role to Raya in goal.
Arsenal are unlikely to complete a deal for the goalkeeper. The Gunners have other big problems. A new right winger could take center stage as his talisman Bukayo Saka You could be out for 2 months or more after hamstring surgery.
