“Perhaps the worst kept secret” United States goalkeeper Matt Turner wrote on his Instagram account on his Instagram account. Finally, the incorporation of him with Arsenal of the English Premier League from next summer became official.
The squad led by Mikel Arteta officialized this Monday the arrival of the goalkeeper from the New England Revolution and that he played the vast majority of the Concacaf qualifying matches towards the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
Turner knows that the fight for the starting job will be complicated with Aaron Ramsdale, especially considering that the American arrives to replace the German Bernd Leno, who could leave the London institution. Despite this, the 27-year-old is not afraid of losing his place with the national team and even assures that he will fight to be Arsenal’s number one.

In a video that the ‘Gunners’ team uploaded to social networks, Turner acknowledged that “New Jersey is a long way from North London, but watching Arsenal play made me fall in love with the way they play and the values of this club.
The 27-year-old goalkeeper acknowledged that “I got to work” in order to one day be able to wear the colors of the Arsenal team, and stated that he tried to “be the best version of himself as a goalkeeper.” Finally, Turner assured that arriving at the ‘Gunners’ “is one of the best days of my life and I am fulfilling a dream”.
