| Bernd Leno of Arsenal at London Colney on May 07, 2022 in London, England. |
Benfica are interested in
signing Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno this summer but are hesitant to
meet the Gunners’ valuation of £8.5million.
Leno is set to leave Arsenal this summer after he lost
his place in the side to Aaron Ramsdale.
Arsenal have already struck a deal to bring in New
England Revolution goalkeeper Matt Turner in July.
Leno made just four Premier League appearances this
season while he featured only eight times across all competitions.
The 30-year-old
is eager to get back into the Germany squad ahead of the World Cup but he
hasn’t been called up by his country since November last year.
Leno joined
Arsenal from Bayer Leverkusen in 2018 for £22.5million and has played 125 times
for the club in total.
According to
The Sun, a host of other players could also leave Arsenal.
Matteo
Guendouzi and Konstantinos Mavropanos have already secured permanent switches
to Marseille and Stuttgart respectively.
Hector
Bellerin, Pablo Mari, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Lucas Torreira could also
depart permanently having all been out on loan this season.
