ARSENAL are set to make a move for Chelsea goalkeeping coach Christophe Lollichon this summer.
The Gunners are planning a major revamp of the current coaching staff, with a new goalkeeping coach to work with the first team a high priority, .
Lollichon, 54, comes highly recommended by Arsenal's current number one Petr Cech, as the pair have worked together throughout the Czech Republic keeper's career.
The Frenchman moved to Stamford Bridge in 2007 to link up with Cech after their time together at Rennes.
Lollichon was marginalised after a reported falling out with Thibaut Courtois, and is now out of the first team picture with the arrival of Antonio Conte with his own technical staff.
Cech and Lollichon could be reunited at the Emirates after a two-season break, with the Frenchman working alongside Gunners goalkeeping coach Gerry Peyton.
