Leno tells Arsenal he wants to be ever-present in all 4 comps

Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno wants to be an ever-present next season.

The 27-year-old joined the Gunners last summer in a £19million deal from Bayer Leverkusen.

With Petr Cech now retired and back at Chelsea, Arsenal are set to promote Emiliano Martinez to be No2.

The club have not entirely ruled out signing a goalkeeper but, with a modest £40m available, other areas of the team are considered a much greater priority to strengthen, says the London Evening Standard.

Leno has expressed his desire to take on the responsibility of playing in every competition, although Martinez will likely be handed an opportunity in the EFL Cup.
