Arsene Wenger says move for Petr Cech highly unlikely

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has dismissed reports linking him with a move for Chelsea keeper Petr Cech.

Cech has been one of the most outstanding keepers in the Premier League in recent years, but he has been kept out of the Chelsea team for most of this season by Thibaut Courtois.

The 32-year-old has not tried to hide his frustration at being on the bench, and he has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge at the end of the season, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly potential destinations.

Wenger, though, indicated that he is happy with the keepers he already has at The Emirates.

"I believe in the goalkeepers I have," said the Arsenal boss.

"I believe that Wojciech Szczesny is a very good goalkeeper and David Ospina has come in and done a fantastic job.

“You look at the numbers in the Premier League and who is top of all the goalkeepers and you will see it is Ospina."
