Arsenal are ready to join the race to sign Kasper Schmeichel, according to the Daily Mail.
The Gunners are in desperate need of a world class goalkeeper according to former Arsenal midfielder Paul Merson and the 28-year-old could be one of the names boss Arsene Wenger has on his agenda.
Earlier this week, Merson told Sky Sports: "I think they need a world class goalkeeper.
"I can't remember the goalkeeper ever saving them points this season.
"I think they need a world-class centre-half, a holding midfielder and a world-class centre-forward.
"That is the whole spine of the team. Even with the tight games, like [the 0-0 draw with] Sunderland, it was Sunderland that had the best chances in the game.
"You rarely see Chelsea have a situation like that."
