Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta could make emergency Joe Hart transfer on June 30 after Bernd Leno injury
ARSENAL are reportedly considering an emergency swoop for Joe Hart.
The claims Mikel Arteta could sign England’s former No1 after seeing Bernd Leno suffered a serious injury against Brighton.
The German was stretchered off during the first half of Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at the Amex.
And Arsenal fear Leno could be out for some time, leaving just Emiliano Martinez between the sticks.
However, Hart is said to have emerged as an option after Burnley confirmed his exit at the end of the month.
