The Gunners have been in search of goalkeeping options throughout the summer. Initially seeking a long-term option, they have been compelled to seek a shorter-term solution following a deal with Bournemouth for Brazil’s Neto.

The agreement does not include an option or obligation to buy. Neto is set to undergo a medical with Arsenal before finalizing a move to the Emirates on deadline day, finally putting an end to Arsenal’s protracted search for a goalkeeper.

Previously linked with Espanyol’s Joan Garcia, Arsenal encountered obstacles due to the Spanish side’s insistence on his €30million release clause being paid. Following the announcement of his official move, Neto expressed gratitude to Arsenal for the opportunity and expressed eagerness to start working with familiar faces at the club.

He mentioned his positive experiences with fellow players Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly and his excitement to continue developing and progressing in the upcoming season.
