BERND LENO has reportedly joined Hector Bellerin on the Arsenal transfer list following a number of below-par performances.
The German goalkeeper – signed from Bayer Leverkusen in 2018 – has disappointed in recent months, leading to speculation he could be sold.
A number of high-profile mistakes against the likes of Everton, Wolves, Olympiacos, West Ham and Liverpool has seen Mikel Arteta question his future.
Athletic Bilbao shot-stopper Unai Simon is believed to be a summer target, while Ajax ace Andre Onana is another potential option for the Gunners.
And according to Football.London, the 29-year-old has been made available for transfer by the North Londoners.
The news outlet claims that he has joined Bellerin on the axe list, who SunSport understands fancies a fresh challenge after ten years at the Emirates.
It has also been reported that Lucas Torreira, Sead Kolasinac, Ainsley Maintland-Niles and Matteo Guendouzi will all look to be sold once their respective loan spells come to an end.
Arsenal are looking to raise at least £60million from player sales in order to fund bids for targets of their own.
One of those that is being eyed by the FA Cup holders is Brighton midfielder Yves Bissouma who could cost around £30m.
Arteta is also keen to bring in a right-back to replace Bellerin, with Bissouma’s Seagulls team-mate Tariq Lamptey a possible option.

Norwich’s Max Aarons is another player that has been linked, along with Emerson Royal, who plays for Real Betis but is jointly owned by Barcelona.
French media revealed on Monday that Rennes starlet Eduardo Camavinga has been named as a priority signing for Arsenal.
However it looks unlikely that that Arteta’s side will win the race to secure his services with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich also in for him.
All sighs point towards a busy summer at the Emirates, with the Spaniard to be heavily backed in the transfer window.
