Ben Foster touts himself for Arsenal transfer despite Watford relegation

dailystar.co.uk:

Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster has boldly put himself in the frame for a summer switch to Arsenal.Foster, 39, is set to leave the Hornets following their relegation from the Premier League after four years in Hertfordshire.

And the veteran shot-stopper - who is now out of contract at Vicarage Road - has jokingly set his sights on a move to the Emirates.Arsenal are in the market for another back-up goalkeeper with Bernd Leno expected to quit the Londoners this summer.

And Foster has revealed he'd be more than happy to take on a mentoring role with Mikel Arteta's side.When Foster was asked on his podcast, The Fozcast, if he'd be open to taking up a spot as a No 2, the veteran said: "Yeah I think I would to be honest with you.

If I’m signing for a club as a number two goalkeeper, depending on who the first-choice goalkeeper is, so say it was someone like Arsenal or even Aston Villa for example where you’ve got the first choice goalie I know is a world-class goalkeeper."So someone like [Aaron] Ramsdale or Emi Martinez, I know I’ve got a world-class goalkeeper in front of me who’s still at an age where they’re learning and they can get better – because they can, they’ve got the potential."I will, at that point, say, 'Right I am going to help you as much as I can to maximise your ability and make sure that you become an absolute monster, a beast, and give you all the tools that I’ve learned'.Do you think Foster would be a good back-up option for Arsenal?
