Arsenal confident in signing Espanyol goalkeeper García

The goalkeeper position has been a major headache for Mikel Arteta, as Arsenal has struggled to maintain sufficient depth in that area. However, the Gunners appear to be close to resolving the issue.

Details: According to Football Insider, Arsenal is confident that 23-year-old Espanyol goalkeeper Joan García will eventually join the club. The Gunners are still in the race after an unsuccessful attempt to sign the young shot-stopper last year. However, the exact transfer fee remains unknown.

Reminder: García has been an undisputed starter for Espanyol this season, playing all 23 matches from start to finish. He has kept just three clean sheets while conceding 35 goals. Earlier, it was reported that Espanyol had been hit with a transfer ban by FIFA.
