Almunia Off To Osasuna, Schwarzer In?

The Goon Blog is reporting that Arsenal are currently holding talks over the transfer of Almunia with Osasuna.  Having not featured at all in Arsenal’s preseason matches, it appears that the fate of Manuel Almunia is sealed and that he’s on his way out.  The only stumbling block, it seems, according to The Goon Blog is the wage demands of Almunia.  After lackluster performances last season, it seems that now, the goalkeeper has fallen out of favor with manager Arsene Wenger.  The same source also reports that we are in for Schwarzer, the number one of Fulham. 

Schwarzer doesn’t really look like the top goalkeeper signing that Arsenal fans are shouting out for, but he might be able to do a job until one of the younger keepers are ready to step up.
