Arsene Wenger: 'David Ospina can challenge Wojciech Szczesny'

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger believes that David Ospina can threaten Wojciech Szczesny's place as the first-choice goalkeeper this coming season.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has challenged new goalkeeper David Ospina to put pressure on current number one Wojciech Szczesny.

The shot-stopper will reportedly sign for the Gunners after their pre-season tour of the United States has concluded, and the French boss believes that Ospina can threaten the Poland international's place.

He told reporters: "You know at the start Szczesny will be the [first choice], then again we'll be down to performances and, if Ospina shows that he is better, he will play."

Ospina made 29 Ligue 1 appearances for Nice last season.
