Arsenal goalkeeper David Ospina is a wanted man this summer, and FC Nantes are one of several teams to have shown an interest.
The Ligue 1 side, who have recently appointed Claudio Ranieri as their new manager, had expressed a clear desire to bring the Colombian international to the club ahead of the upcoming season.
However, according to L’Equipe, Arsenal’s asking price for Ospina is out of Nantes’ range.
The French club’s deputy general manager Franck Kita discussed the possibility of signing the experienced shot-stopper, and admitted that a move would not be feasible this summer.
We asked for information (on a potential transfer), but it’s unfeasible for us.
Ospina has been attracting lots of interest in the recent months, and clubs such as Besiktas have been linked with a move to sign him.
Despite this though, it’s looking like Arsenal are keen to recoup or even make a profit on the fee they paid Nice for the goalkeeper back in 2014.
Ospina is keen to play regular first-team football, as he currently finds himself below Petr Cech in the pecking order at Arsenal.
