Arsenal’s 2-0 win at AC Milan may have eased the pressure on Arsene Wenger for the time being, but there is no doubt that he no longer has the backing of the Arsenal supporters.

After a string of poor results, Arsenal fans have gone up against Wenger, as Gooners want a change in management next season.

For the longest time, Wenger was held in high esteem and fans and players alike respected and loved the Frenchman. But things have gone sour for Wenger over the last couple of years, as it is clear that he can no longer take this team forward.

Along with Wenger, there are many players who need to leave this club in the summer, as there are many stars who are either past their best or just not good enough.

One such player is Petr Cech, as the veteran keeper looks to be past his best at the club. The Cech star has been a legend of the game, but now looks to be well past his usually extraordinary levels.

Arsenal are targeting Bayer Leverkusen goalkeeper Bernd Leno as a replacement for Petr Cech. The former Chelsea goalkeeper has not had the best of the season with the gunners and with many debating that whether he is still the best man to be in goal.

Leno is contracted to Leverkusen until 2020 but has a release clause which would allow him to leave for €25 million (£22m).

Now we hear that Jack Butland is another target for the club, as the English keeper could be a fixture in the side for years to come.
