Goalkeeper Illan Melie is close to signing a contract with Arsenal, reports The Athletic.
The London club is going to make a cost-free deal with the 26-year-old Frenchman, who after seven campaigns from Leeds United has become a free agent. The Whites' footballer Melie played 215 matches, in which he conceded 286 goals and kept a clean sheet 70 times..
Illan's inconsistent form in the 2024/25 season led to head coach Daniel Farque switching him off the bench, and during the last campaign the Frenchman took part in just two youth team matches (U-21), missing six of them..
In 2020, Loryan took 6.5 million euros for his recruit.
It appears that Melieu's move will allow his wheelman behind Arsenal's position, Tommy Setford, to lose the club on loan..
Apparently, it was previously reported that London would release one of the heroes of its championship season.
