Arsenal offered chance to sign PSG keeper Areola as Martinez replacement

Arsenal have been offered the chance to sign Paris Saint-Germain goalkeeper Alphonse Areola on loan.

The Gunners could lose Emiliano Martinez as Aston Villa are looking to secure his signature.

And the Evening Standard says Areola has been mentioned as a possible replacement.

The Frenchman spent last season on loan at Real Madrid as a backup for Thibaut Courtois.

Fulham remain the favourites to sign Areola, who was part of France's World Cup winning squad in 2018, while Chelsea have also been linked.

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is facing a tough decision to pick between Bernd Leno and Martinez as his starting goalkeeper.
