Kepa open to leaving Arsenal | Gunners monitoring Meslier
Latest from Sky in Italy reporter Luca Bendoni:
Kepa Arrizabalagas future at Arsenal is not totally assured this summer.
The goalkeeper is understood to be open to the idea of a new challenge as a No 1 at the right club.
The Spaniard is in no rush to leave, but if something suitable comes along that is right professionally and personally for his family he may consider it.
In case he does leave, Arsenal are keeping tabs on former Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier, who is a free agent after his contract at Elland Road expired.

Fernandes set for Spurs medical
Latest from Your Site News reporter Michael Bridge:
Mateus Fernandes has been given permission to undergo his Spurs medical after an 85m deal was agreed with West Ham.
Your Site News understands Spurs were determined to win the race to sign Fernandes and would have matched any offer Manchester United made for the player.
In the end, United were unwilling to reach the 85m Spurs put up for Fernandes.
Spurs missed out on a number of key targets last summer one of which was Bryan Mbeumo, who went to United which has contributed to the hierarchy's desire to land a statement signing in this window.
Struijk sale keeps us in line with PSR, says Leeds
Leeds say the sale of Pascal Struijk to Brighton has helped them remain compliant with the Premier Leagues Profit and Sustainability Rules.
Confirmation of the defenders transfer, worth around 18m, came on Tuesday night, the final day of the three-year accounting window for PSR.
In a lengthy statement, Leeds said Struijks transfer fee, along with the added income of a 14th-placed finish in the Premier League and a run to the FA Cup semi-final, has ensured the club stay within their PSR limits.
Leeds feel this vindicates their decision to keep the squad together last summer after winning promotion from the Championship.
Brighton sign Struijk from Leeds
Brighton have signed centre-back Pascal Struijk from Leeds in a deal worth around 18m.
He has signed a five-year deal with the Seagulls.
Leeds say the deal for Struijk, who was their longest-serving player, includes a sell-on clause.
The 26-year-old was entering the final year of his deal at Elland Road and was offered "a significantly improved contract".
However, Leeds respected his desire for a new challenge and sanctioned his move to Brighton, which they say keeps them compliant with PSR.
'Fernandes would be a great signing - Spurs just have to get it done now'
Your Site' Jamie Redknapp:
"It is great news for Tottenham fans and there will be a lot of excitement as this is something we have never really seen before - they are having a real go in the market, the previous regime would never have done this.
"There have been a couple of reasons - the two relegation fights have not been ideal for the fans and board and they've had enough. And with Arsenal winning the title, it has almost embarrassed Spurs into action, now we have to act and start buying some proper players.
"And [Sandro] Tonali and Fernandes are the sort of players the Tottenham midfield have been crying out for. They have not had that quality in there, they've had players who work really hard.
"Hopefully they can get the players in as they are going to be a force next year and right now, if you look at them, there is no reason why they can't have a right go next year. It has been a great window for them, they've moved fast, which is something we never saw before and I am a big fan of Fernandes, who was very unfortunate not to be in Portugal's squad.
"And for Tottenham, this would be a great signing - they just have to get it done now."
Fernandes imminent to Spurs - Redknapp with high praise for club

Fernandes preference unclear during transfer talks
Latest from Your Site News' Michael Bridge and Lyall Thomas:
Tottenham have agreed a deal to sign Manchester United target Mateus Fernandes from West Ham for 85m.
United pushed hard to sign Fernandes but will only buy players at the right valuation.
They want players who really want to play for United - and his preference was not clear throughout the process.
United will continue to remain patient and buy the right targets at the right price as they believe they did last summer.
The midfielder is now preparing to undergo a medical ahead of a move that would smash Spurs' transfer record of 53m which they paid for striker Dominic Solanke.
'This is a mega statement of intent from Spurs'
Your Site News reporter Michael Bridge:
"It is quite incredible news - we knew Spurs had gone head to head in the last few weeks with Man Utd for the transfer of Fernandes from West Ham, who were insistent they wanted 85m for a player they believe is going to be one of the best midfielders in world football.
"There was original interest from Man Utd, Spurs we know have been interested in Sandro Tonali, but what we do know is that Fernandes was then interested in Spurs - so it was a straight fight between Spurs and United.
"And it looks like Spurs are now going to win the race to sign Fernandes. This is a humongous deal - Spurs' previous record transfer was Dominic Solanke for around 65m. At the end of last season, they said they were going to spend big in the next two windows and this is a mega statement of intent."
