The Premier League champions are set to welcome a new goalkeeper to their squad, with Illan Meslier reportedly on the verge of joining the team on a free transfer.
Meslier, who last played for Leeds in a 2-2 draw with Swansea in March 2025, is expected to complete a move to the north London club pending a medical.
The 6ft 7in shot-stopper is likely to be brought in as a backup option to undisputed number one David Raya, with Kepa reportedly open to the prospect of leaving the Emirates this summer.
Kepa is said to be actively pursuing a fresh challenge away from north London after making just one solitary Premier League appearance in his debut season with the Gunners last term.
Meslier's contract with Leeds expired this summer, and he is set to depart the club, with the goalkeeper thanking the team for his service in an official statement.
Meslier won two promotions during his six-year spell with Leeds, and will always be remembered as a key player in the club's history.
He will become the first new face to join Arsenal this summer, and several new recruits are expected to follow him through the doors over the coming weeks.
Piero Hincapie joined the Gunners on a permanent basis last month, with the north London outfit exercising their option to sign the defender for £34.5 million following an initial loan deal.
