Wojciech Szczesny is set to return to Roma this summer if he completes his medical tomorrow.
The Polish international goalkeeper is set to re-join the Italian giants on an initial loan deal, with Roma having the option to buy him for £13.4 Million come the end of the season.
Arsenal have agreed a fee to send to Wojciech Szczesny back to Roma for the coming season, with an option to buy.
The Polish international has been outside Arsene Wenger’s first-team plans since losing his place to David Ospina in January 2015, and fell further down the pecking order when Petr Cech was signed from Chelsea in the following summer.
He may have been the target of much criticism from the Arsenal fans and football media in general for a nightmare game in the Champions League against Olympiacos, but David Ospina bounced back well and ended last season having regained the respect and admiration of Gooners everywhere.
Out of contract goalkeeper Guy Smit has been handed a two-week trial at Arsenal, where he will try to earn a permanent move.
The 20 year-old is yet to make a senior appearance, but has impressed for NEC Nijmegen’s youth side, and could now be set to move to England this summer.
Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny is to spend another season on loan with Roma.
The Polish international fell down the pecking order at the Emirates stadium last summer, following the arrival of Petr Cech from Chelsea, and consequently moved out on loan to the Italian side.
Tonight sees the first of the Euro 2016 quarter-finals and there is just one Arsenal player who could be involved, although Sky Sports are reporting that this is unlikely as Wojciech Szvzesny is still not fully fit after picking up a thigh injury in training after the first group game.
There have already been plenty of reports about the goalkeeper conundrum facing Arsene Wenger, because Arsenal have three quality keepers and only two places. Even one of those is going to be spending a lot of time on the bench and that complicates matters for the Gunners even more.
The Arsenal and Colombian international keeper David Ospina did his reputation no harm whatsoever today, with his heroics in goal playing a huge part in putting his country into the semi-finals of the Copa America for the first time since 2004 and setting up a possible meeting with his Arsenal team mate Alexis Sanchez, whose Chile side face Mexico in the early hours of tomorrow morning.
