Arsenal may consider selling Bernd Leno for €15m (£12.9m) after the German lost his first-team place, according to reporter Rudy Galetti.
The Italian journalist claims that Inter Milan are interested in the 29-year-old, with the Serie A champions lining him up as a potential replacement for veteran Samir Handanovic:
⚫🔵 In addition to #Onana (who opened to #Ajax for the renewal and who is followed by #Napoli and other clubs in 🇪🇺), #Inter think of #Leno for #Handanovic replacement. For the right price (around €15M) #Arsenal can sell him already in the summer. 🐓⚽ #Calciomercato #Transfers

Leno was signed from Bayer Leverkusen for £22.5m just over three years ago, and it means the Gunners could lose £10m on the player, if Galetti’s reporting on the asking price is accurate.
The German international will only have one year remaining on his current deal in the summer, and it seems Arsenal are willing to cut their losses, now he has lost his position to Aaron Ramsdale.
There was some speculation that Leno may regain his place in the side for the North London derby. However, that didn’t turn out to be the case, with Ramsdale putting in an excellent performance, which likely means he will keep possession of the no.1 jersey for the long term.
