Arsenal have reportedly made an offer for Wolves goalkeeper Dan Bentley. The Gunners are keen on the 31-year-old, who came through their academy, as they look to bolster their goalkeeping department.
Mikel Arteta wants to strengthen his goalkeeping options, having already sealed the permanent signing of David Raya from Brentford. According to The Sun, Arsenal have made a £300,000 offer for Bentley and hope to clinch a deal.
However, Wolves want £1m instead, but the two clubs are close to finding a compromise. Bentley has played just seven matches for Wolves since joining the club in 2023, and has kept three clean sheets in seven appearances across all competitions.

Bentley came through Arsenal’s ranks but left at the age of 15 to join Southend United in 2008. He has since had spells at Brentford and Bristol City before joining Wolves 18 months ago.
Bentley would bring experience to Arsenal, but is unlikely to have significant playing time as Raya and Aaron Ramsdale would be ahead of him in the pecking order. Meanwhile, Arsenal have completed the signing of Ajax’s 18-year-old goalkeeper Tommy Setford for just under £1m.
