Arsenal have seen their initial bid for Wolves goalkeeper Dan Bentley last week, and the Gunners are set to return with another bid to land the goalkeeper this summer.
Back to Hale End? Arsenal renew bid for former youth keeper Dan Bentley
Mikel Arteta brought in David Raya on a permanent deal earlier this summer, and he is looking at Dan Bentley to provide the cover for EURO 2024 going into the next season, especially with Aaron Ramsdale‘s future in North London looking slim every passing day.
The Gunners made an approach of £50,000 for Dan Bentley, which was swiftly rejected by Wolves as it was ‘way off’ their valuation of the goalkeeper. While the 31-year-old only has one year left on his current contract at Molineux Stadium, his current employers are looking for a sizeable offer to let go of Dan.
Arsenal want to bring Bentley back to the London Colony. The 31-year-old actually began his youth career at Hale End and was released from the club in 2008 after seven years with the Gunners. He also knows current Arsenal goalkeeper coach Inaki Cana from their time together at Brentford.
Dan Bentley signed for the Wolves in the last winter window and has been serving as a deputy to Jose Sa.

Bentley comes in with home-grown status, and the Gunners are set to make another transfer offer for his services. We lack a senior figure in the goalkeeping department going to the US tour, and Arsenal are keen to add him before boarding the flight to America.
