Arsenal are set to make a shock swoop for Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina.
The 31-year-old, who is in Spain's squad for the World Cup, had been expected to complete a permanent move to Napoli after his loan spell.
But the Italian side have been priced out of a deal according to Reina's agent.
Manuel Garcia Quilon is quoted as saying in the Express: "From June 30 he will return to Liverpool because they want to maximise his sale and Napoli are not willing to spend what is required."
The Gunners are on the lookout for a new keeper after Lukasz Fabianski's move to Swansea and the continuing question marks over Wojciech Szczesny and the experienced Reina, who almost moved to the Emirates four years ago, would fit the bill.
