Arsenal are monitoring Wigan Athletic's Sam Tickle, who has impressed their scouts. Tickle is considered to be too good for League One and is ready to make a step up in his career.

Wigan Athletic’s Sam Tickle rejected a move to Premier League Arsenal on deadline day. Tickle was seen as a potential third choice option between the sticks for Arsenal. The England Under-21 glovesman opted to turn down the move due to not wanting to drop into the shadows.
