Mikel Arteta continues to re-shape his Arsenal squad as goalkeeper Alex Runarsson joins Alanyaspor on loan, following the likes of Nuno Tavares, Matteo Guendouzi and Alexandre Lacazette out of the Emirates doors

Arsenal goalkeeper Alex Runarsson has joined Turkish side Alanyaspor on a season-long loan deal.

The 27-year-old has found himself down the pecking order at the Emirates with the summer arrival of Matt Turner, who has been playing back-up to Aaron Ramsdale in the opening two games of the Premier League season.

Gunners manager Mikel Artera has made it his mission to cut as much debris as possible from his squad this summer as he looks to build a team with good quality depth, and Runarsson has become the latest addition to a long list of names to have already departed North London this summer.
