Report: Petr Cech to request Arsenal switch

Petr Cech will tell Chelsea that he wants a transfer to Arsenal this summer, according to a report.

Chelsea goalkeeper Petr Cech will reportedly make it clear to the Blues that he wants to join Arsenal this summer.

The 33-year-old has lost his position as first-choice stopper at Stamford Bridge to Thibaut Courtois, which has led to speculation over his future.

It is thought that Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is keen to tie up the signing of Cech, with the Gunners looking for a new long-term goalkeeper.

Wenger is said to be hopeful of luring the Czech international to the Emirates Stadium with his plans to challenge for the Premier League title next season, after his side won their second FA Cup in as many seasons last weekend.

According to Goal.com, Cech will tell Chelsea that he would like a switch to their London rivals.

Cech has made 494 appearances for Chelsea since joining from Rennes in 2004.
