Fenerbahce closing on deal for Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina

Fenerbahce are closing on a deal for Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina.

The Daily Star says Ospina looks set to leave Arsenal after his agent was spotted negotiating a deal with Fenerbahce chiefs in London.

The Colombian goalkeeper has been struggling for first-team action at the Emirates for a number of seasons now.

He has been playing second fiddle to Petr Cech, except in European competitions.

But the arrival of Bernd Leno has further pushed Ospina down the pecking order, and the former Nice stopper now feels he has no choice but to leave.

A number of clubs have taken an interest in him, ranging from Tigres in Mexico to Turkish side Fenerbahce.
