Arsenal transfer close, director confirms club is working hard

The Polish keeper is on loan at Roma and the Italians are very impressed with his performances so far.

Roma sporting director Walter Sabatini has confirmed that the Italian giants are in talks with Arsenal regarding a permanent move but nothing is final yet.

“We are working on it and would like to keep Szczesny, but knowing Arsenal it will be difficult to achieve that,” Sabatini said.

“In any case, Roma are already covered in that role for next season. Who did we get? I would never tell you that!”

Wojciech Szczesny was sent out on loan after Arsenal signed the former Chelsea legend Petr Cech.
