Would also challenge current No 1 Wojciech Szczesny

Arsenal are giving serious consideration to a £6million move for Norwich goalkeeper John Ruddy.

The Gunners have been alerted to Ruddy's potential availability ahead of next season and Sportsmail understands there is a strong willingness from the Emirates Stadium to pursue a move for the England international.

Reading goalkeeper Alex McCarthy has also been identified as a possible candidate to replace outgoing second choice keeper Lukasz Fabianski.
