Not Cech! 5 Goalkeepers Arsenal Could Sign

After the Premier League campaign finally came to an end, attention is already being turned to the Gunners squad for next season.

Arsenal fans are concerned about who will take charge between the sticks next year, with Ospina failing to capture the title of a big money signing, and of course the dip in form from Wojech Szczesny.

The Polish number one has failed to take advantage of the few chances he’s had during the FA Cup games, after a couple of shaky performances against both Manchester United and Brighton.

Fresh Arsenal have picked out five possible replacements if the 26-year-old is to be shown the door, and with Wenger already stating he’ll be active in the transfer market, could any of these shot-stoppers be our next goalkeeper?

  • Price: £10million
  • Height: 6ft 7″
  • Best Attribute: Set-pieces

With five years experience in the Premier League, Begovic has proved his ability in some of the most demanding fixtures, and isn’t exactly a stranger to Arsenal fans.

Considering he played every minute of his World Cup campaign last summer, the Bosnian will fancy himself to carry on with the bigger competitions, and he would struggle to turn down Champions League football.

At 27 years old, we’re still set to see the best from the Stoke City shot-stopper, who has less than 12 months remaining on his contract meaning he could go for a relatively modest price.

Begovic has been linked with moves to Manchester United and Real Madrid, and would almost certainly walk into the Gunners as number one.
