Arsenal 'ready to make move for Leno'

Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno has emerged as a reported summer transfer target for Arsenal.

The 23-year-old, who has made more than 130 league appearances for the German club since joining from Stuttgart in 2011, is also said to be wanted by Real Madrid.

Arsene Wenger has hinted that he will delve into the market for a keeper during the off-season, and the Daily Mail claims that Gunners scouts have been sent to watch the Germany Under-21s international up close.

Leno, a regular in the Champions League for Leverkusen earlier this term, could now tempt Arsenal to buy out his release clause which stands at £13m.
