Will we be bringing in another keeper for depth?

Or will Arthur Okonkwo be added to the squad for cups and Europa?

Looks like Hein or Rúnarsson will be 3rd keeper this season.

Joins Cardiff on loan after the club failed to sell him.

No loan fee apparently but they will cover 50% of his salary which was a cheaper alternative than cancelling his contract.

Will leave for free next season.

We literally signed him because he was cheap and looks the part

At 6"5 and a fee of £1M he's great value from the pov of amount of footballer per £

Wasn't he signed on the recommendation of the keeping coach tbh

At least he was dirt cheap. Not really a huge issue with punts like this.

Contract mutually terminated

https://www.arsenal.com/news/alex-runarsson-leaves-club

Alex Runarsson has returned from his loan spell at Cardiff City and will now leave the club by mutual agreement.

Iceland international Alex joined us in September 2020 from French side Dijon FCO and made six appearances in his debut season for us, keeping three clean sheets in the process.

The 28-year-old goalkeeper has spent valuable time on-loan in recent seasons with OH Leuven in Belgium, Turkish side Alanyaspor, as well as Cardiff City where he has spent the first half of this campaign.

Everyone at Arsenal thanks Alex for his contribution during his time with us and we wish him well for the future.
