Arsenal secure loan deal for Bournemouth goalkeeper Neto.
Arsenal have finalized a season-long loan agreement with Bournemouth for goalkeeper Neto, following a failed pursuit of Espanyol’s Joan Garcia.
The Spanish club’s demand for Garcia’s full €30million release clause led Arsenal to turn their attention to Neto, who is scheduled for a medical on Friday morning.

The 35-year-old Neto, who started all three of Bournemouth’s games this season, will join Arsenal as Kepa Arrizabalaga arrives at Bournemouth on loan from Chelsea.
This move marks a reunion for Neto, who was previously linked to Arsenal during his time at Barcelona.
Neto’s arrival will provide competition for David Raya, as Aaron Ramsdale prepares to join Southampton in an £18m deal, with potential add-ons of £7m and a sell-on clause.
Ramsdale’s move is expected to be completed by Friday midday, allowing him to debut for Southampton against Brentford this weekend.
