Arsenal agree Ospina fee with Nice

Arsenal are finalising the signing of Nice goalkeeper David Ospina.

The London Evening Standard says Arsenal have agreed a fee of around £3million with Nice for Ospina.

The 25-year-old impressed for Colombia at the World Cup and will challenge Wojciech Szczesny for the No1 shirt at the Emirates.

Ospina only has 12 months left on his contract at Nice and Arsenal have reached an agreement with the French club to make him their third summer signing, after the arrivals of winger Alexis Sanchez and defender Mathieu Debuchy.

Arsene Wenger has been keen to add another goalkeeper after the departure of Lukasz Fabianski, who joined Swansea after rejecting a new contract.
