Following his move from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2018, a lot was expected from Bernd Leno and the German international delivered in his first season at the club. So much so, that many Arsenal fans were overjoyed by the German’s performances for the Gunners and over the years, Leno maintained that consistency for the club. However, an injury and Aaron Ramsdale’s arrival last season saw Leno usurped as Arsenal’s number 1 and the German has struggled to find his way back since.

The London side and Leno have already come to an agreement over a three year contract, plus a one year optional extention, and both parties happy with the deal. However, Arsenal and Fulham are yet to reach an agreement as the Gunners want at least £11 million for the German international while Fulham are looking to negotiate a lower fee.
