Arsenal have been dealt a major blow in their pursuit of Andre Onana, with the Ajax goalkeeper having reportedly agreed to join Lyon.

Although the 25-year-old is currently serving a suspension for a doping violation he is still very highly regarded. His ban is set to end on November 4.
Bernd Leno remains Arsenal’s first-choice goalkeeper, and, with a move for Onana now appearing unlikely, manager Mikel Arteta will have to look elsewhere for another shot-stopper.

It seems Arteta could now turn his attention to Sheffield United goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale
Sheffield United’s Aaron Ramsdale is seemingly Arsenal’s main target amid suggestions that they will make a bid of £30million for the 23-year-old.
Arsenal have made three major signings so far this summer, with the most significant deal seeing defender Ben White arrive from Brighton for £50million.
Midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga and left-back Nuno Tavares have also joined.
