Arsenal in Advanced Talks for 29-Year-Old Star with 32 International Caps
Nottingham Forest is reportedly interested in acquiring Matt Turner, a 29-year-old American goalkeeper, from Arsenal this summer.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal is presently in negotiations with Premier League rival Nottingham Forest regarding the transfer of 29-year-old goalkeeper Matt Turner.
Turner has served as a backup to Aaron Ramsdale, and it is unlikely that he will play routinely in the upcoming season.
It makes sense for the 29-year-old to join a club that will provide him with abundant playing time. However, it remains to be seen if Nottingham Forest will provide him with these assurances.
Additionally, Nottingham Forest has been linked to Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson.
Henderson would unquestionably be a superior option than Turner, and it remains to be seen who they ultimately sign.
Over the past few days, Arsenal has been linked to players like David Raya.
It will be intriguing to see if the Gunners decide to sell Turner and replace him with a quality player.

Raya is among the finest goalkeepers in the Premier League, and he could challenge Ramsdale for the starting position next season.
The increased competition for positions will aid Arsenal’s squad development.
Turner, who is 29 years old, is undoubtedly capable of playing for mid-table clubs.
Therefore, a transfer to Nottingham Forest would be the best next step for his career. It will be intriguing to see if the two organizations can reach a deal quickly.
Now that Nottingham Forest has made an inquiry about him, they will need to make a formal offer.
Turner is regarded as expendable by Arsenal, and the Gunners are likely to approve his departure if a fair offer is presented.
The 29-year-old is at the height of his abilities and must play frequently at this point in his career.
If Nottingham Forest can guarantee him consistent playing time, it would be his optimal move.
He will attempt to establish himself as a regular fixture for them in the Premier League and to demonstrate his talents at the highest level.
