Sam Johnstone
However, it’s now reckoned Arsenal could instead raid relegated West Brom for Johnstone.
The goalie has impressed in 131 games for the Baggies over the past three seasons.
And Johnstone’s good form earned him a place in England’s Euro 2020 squad.
However, Arsenal face stiff competition for his signature should they press ahead with a bid as north London rivals Tottenham have been linked with a swoop.
And West Ham had a bid turned down by West Brom last week, with the Midlands side reportedly holding out for at least £10million.
Meanwhile, Arsenal completed the signing of Belgian midfielder Albert Lokonga from Anderlecht on Monday.
