Benfica Targeting Arsenal Goalkeeper Bernd Leno

The Sun says Portuguese outfit Benfica are interested but are quibbling over Arsenal's £8.5million valuation of the stopper.

Aaron Ramsdale's £30m arrival last summer has restricted Leno to just four Premier League appearances this campaign.

Leno is now deemed surplus to requirements with American goalkeeper Matt Turner set to arrive in the summer as backup to Ramsdale.

An £8.5m sale would mean a £14m loss on Leno after he signed from Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen for £22.5m four-years ago.

The nine-cap Germany international has played 125 games in total for the Gunners.

But with plans to spend £150m this summer, a yard sale of players is expected.
