Arsenal eyeing deal for Dutch goalkeeper
Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Feyenoord goalkeeper Justin Bijlow as a potential replacement for Aaron Ramsdale.
The Dutchman was linked with a move to Manchester United last summer, but they eventually chose to land Andre Onana and Altay Bayindir.
The 26-year-old is now on the radar of the Gunners and De Telegraaf claim that he is expected to move to the Premier League this summer.
The same outlet claim that the Gunners view the goalkeeper as an ideal second-choice to David Raya, who is set to join permanently.
Ramsdale has been the back-up to the Spaniard over the past year, but he has been fancied to pursue a new challenge in the coming weeks.
Newcastle United have recently pulled out of the race due to the £40m plus price tag, but Ramsdale is expected to attract more transfer bids.
Bijlow would be an upgrade on Ramsdale, considering he is better with his short and long range distribution. He would suit Mikel Arteta's tactics.
