Besiktas leading the race to sign Arsenal's £40,000-a-week goalkeeper

Turkish heavyweights David Ospina are reportedly leading the hunt to sign David Ospina from Arsenal before the end of the month. The Colombia international has served as the deputy goalkeeper to Petr Cech over the past three seasons but his position has changed with the summer arrival of Bernd Leno from Bayer Leverkusen.
According to Sky Sports News, the former Turkish champions are deemed favourites to sign the Colombian, who has literally become the third-choice shot-stopper at the Emirates Stadium.
Ospina was initially linked with an Emirates exit during the summer of 2017 but back then, he was convinced to stay by ex-boss Arsene Wenger with the promise that he would remain the regular for the Cup and European competitions.
However, with a new head coach in Unai Emery at the helm, he has dropped down the pecking order and he has now been offered the option to leave the English capital before the transfer window closes across Europe.
At present, Besiktas are said to be in no hurry to pursue the former Nice man but Sky Sports reports that they may meet a potential stumbling block in signing the experienced shot-stopper.
As per the report, the north London giants are only understood to prefer a permanent sale for the Colombia and this could potentially hamper Besiktas’ prospects of signing the 29-year-old.
In the past, the Gunners have been content to offload players with the obligation to buy at the end of the campaign and the same condition does not seem to lie with Ospina with Emery urged to reduce the wage bill at the club.
Arsenal’s wage bill has exceeded £200m for the first time in their history after a record deal for Mesut Ozil alongside several big-money arrivals and Emery has been tasked with the job of retrieving some finances by sanctioning deals for fringe players.
Ospina presently has two years remaining on his relatively median salary of around £40,000-a-week and he could be among many other players including Carl Jenkinson and Joel Campbell making way before the conclusion of the month.

According to Turkish source Fotomac, Tottenham are preparing an offer worth 10 million euros for former Hamburg midfielder Tolgay Arslan, who is rated at 12 million euros ($14million) by Besiktas.
The 27-year-old star is a versatile talent, who can effectively play as a defensive midfielder and also as a creative central midfielder. He started 18 league games and provided 7 assists to help Besiktas win the title last season.
In the current campaign, so far, Arslan has played 15 games in all competition and he is yet to score a goal or provided an assist.

In your opinion, is Tolgay good enough to improve Tottenham’s midfield?

Liverpool signed Georginio Wijnaldum to strengthen their central midfield last summer. If the latest reports in the media are anything to go by then the Reds have a clear chance of signing another midfielder in the form of Anderson Talisca.
Last month, we compiled a report, via multiple sources, about the 23-year-old Brazilian international and claimed that he was linked with a move to Liverpool last summer (O Jogo). Moreover, the Reds have scouted the $27million rated star all season (Turkish Football).
Talisca is currently playing with Besiktas, on loan from Primeira Liga side Benfica and he has been in fantastic form this season.
The South American star has scored 10 goals and provided 5 assists in 25 games for the Turkish giants, who are leading the league table.
Besiktas want to sign him on a permanent basis but for that they have to meet his asking price. However, their president Fikret Orman told NTV that the club cannot afford to spend 23 million euros to sign him.
In such a scenario, Klopp has a clear opportunity to splash the cash and sign Talisca in the summer transfer window. Liverpool should not really have any problems in spending over 20 million euros for the talented Samba star.
Last season, he mainly played as a central midfielder for Benfica and scored 9 goals in 34 apps. In the current campaign, Besiktas have utilized him in the attacking midfield role. Klopp would surely like such a versatile midfielder in his team.
