Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is reportedly hopeful of signing Nice goalkeeper David Ospina in the coming days.
The Colombia international, who caught the eye with his excellent displays in the World Cup, could move to the Emirates in a £3m deal.
Ospina, aged 25, is Wenger’s top target as he seeks to find competition for Wojciech Szczesny.
He has 12 months left to run on his contract with Nice, which means there is a deal to be done.
Wenger is said to have held talks with Ospina’s advisers, which concluded with the Frenchman convinced that the keeper is ready to agree terms and move to Arsenal if a deal can be done with Nice.
That has seen Ospina overtake Cardiff’s David Marshall, Reading’s Alex McCarthy and Espanyol’s Kiko Casilla in Wenger’s plans to replace Lukasz Fabinaski and Emiliano Viviano, who both left at the end of last season.
