USMNT No 1
Turner, 29, has established himself as the USA’s No 1, but his club career has seen him struggle for game time in north London, playing only seven times under Mikel Arteta last season.
If Raya were to join Arsenal, Turner would become third-choice at the Emirates, behind Aaron Ramsdale and the Spain international.
