Arsenal have contacted Wolves over the possibility of signing 30-year-old goalkeeper, Dan Bentley.
The stopper is viewed as excellent back-up to Raya, would count towards the homegrown quota and has been identified as having the right type of character to mesh well with Arteta’s troops.
Wolves do not wish to sell Bentley who primarily serves as back-up to Jose Sa. However, the report suggested they could be convinced to cash in if suitable bids are lodged. Doing so would then allow Wolves to reinvest.
If Bentley were to join the Gunners, it appears almost certain he’d push Ramsdale out.
Contact made for Pedro Nero signing
Arsenal are showing stronger and stronger interest in Bentley’s Wolves teammate, Pedro Neto.
The electric left-footed winger has a £60m price tag, though sources close to the situation believe a deal could be made for £50m.
Neto, 24, bagged 11 goal contributions in 20 Premier League appearances last term. Tottenham too have registered interest, though their primary focus is signing Crystal Palace talisman, Eberechi Eze.
As such, Arsenal are the frontrunners for Neto and we can confirm conversations with the player’s agency have been held.
As a left-footer, Neto would be signed to provide stiff competition for Bukayo Saka on the right flank.
