    BERND LENO

    The Bayer Leverkusen shot-stopper is set to sign for Arsenal over the coming days, according to Kicker.

    The 26-year-old is closing in on a move to North London and is seen by Unai Emery as the ideal successor to Petr Cech, who turned 36 in May.

    Leverkusen are all but resigned to losing Leno – who has an option in his existing contract, which is set to expire in 2020, to leave the club this summer.

    Napoli and Atletico Madrid are also in the mix to land the €20m-rated goalkeeper (Dh89m).

    JEROME BOATENG

    Juventus are considering a move for Bayern Munich centre-back, reports Calciomercato.

    The Italian publication is reporting that the Serie A champions are prepared to make an offer for the German international as they look to bolster their defence ahead of next season.

    Bayern value Boateng at around £28million (Dh13.46m), but Juve want to take him on loan for a season before buying him permanently.

    The 29-year-old is contracted to the Allianz Arena until 2021 but could try and force a move after the World Cup, with there apparently being plenty of admirers from the Premier League.
