ARSENAL are the latest club to be linked with a move for highly rated Nottingham Forest keeper Karl Darlow.
A host of Premier League clubs are believed to be monitoring the 23-year-old, who has established himself as first choice at the City Ground.
Liverpool and Spurs are also thought to be keen on the player, who kept the experienced Dorus de Vries sat on the sidelines with his capable, composed performances last season.
Arsene Wenger is the latest top flight boss to be linked with Darlow – with the Gunners keen to replace Lukasz Fabianski, who left the Emirates earlier in the summer.
Arsenal are keen to provide competition for their own highly regarded keeper, Wojciech Szczesny.
Forest have already had to fend off interest in another of their young players, in the form of 20-year-old defender Jamaal Lascelles.
QPR made an offer thought to be worth as much as £4m for the central defender who, like Darlow, enhanced his reputation last season.
Forest are not in a rush to cash in on either player, with new manager Stuart Pearce keen to make his side stronger, rather then sell off the Reds’ prize assets.
But they could have their resolve tested again, if Arsenal decide to step up their interest with a concrete offer for the product of the Forest youth academy.
