Arsenal on Monday confirmed their third summer signing with
Manchester City’s Gabriel Jesus set to become number four.
The Gunners announced that goalkeeper Matt Turner has joined
the North London club on a long-term contract from MLS side New England
Revolution.
Recall that Arsenal had already signed young Brazilian
forward Marquinhos and Portugal Under-21 international Fabio Vieira this
summer.
Turner is now Arsenal’s third signing and Mikel Arteta’s
side are close to signing Jesus from Man City after reaching an agreement.
Turner made 18 appearances for the US national team since
making his international debut in January 2021.
The 28-year-old started all six matches on the way to the
United States winning the 2021 CONCACAF Gold Cup and has also been an integral
part of the squad which has won qualification to the 2022 FIFA World Cup in
Qatar.
Reacting to the signing of Turner, Arsenal’s Technical
director, Edu told the club’s website: “We are delighted that Matt is joining
us. Matt is a goalkeeper with established qualities and experience, who will be
a great addition to our squad.”
