At 37, and reportedly uninterested in agreeing to Arsenal’s terms for a contract, there’s is a chance that Jens Lehmann could leave Arsenal in the summer.
Leaving or not, Lehmann’s at the age where he will need to be replaced soon, and Arsenal must already be looking at potential recruits (somehow I don’t think that Almunia can cut it as a first-choice Arsenal keeper).
The one name Wenger and co MUST be after is Buffon, and considering the volume of rumours that connected Juve and Arsenal on Buffon last summer I’m pretty sure Arsenal will make a move for him when the time comes to search for Lehmann’s successor.
I imagine that there would be other clubs after Buffon as well, but Arsenal have a headstart on this one, and eventually it will come down to Juve’s ability to keep their star keeper.
Who do you think Arsenal will sign? What other options are there apart from Buffon?
