Report: Manuel Almunia close to Cagliari move

Ex-Arsenal stopper Manuel Almunia is expected to join Cagliari after their president revealed that a goalkeeper with Champions League experience was poised to join them.

Former Arsenal stopper Manuel Almunia is believed to be close to joining Italian side Cagliari.

The Spaniard is a free agent, having left Watford earlier this summer after two years at Vicarage Road.

Cagliari president Tomasso Giulini told Sky Sport Italia that the club are poised to sign a goalkeeper with Champions League experience, and Almunia was reportedly spotted in Sardinia on Tuesday.

The 37-year-old is expected to sign a contract with the Serie A outfit in the next 24 hours.

Almunia played 39 times for Arsenal in the Champions League, including as a substitute in the 2006 final. He made 175 appearances in total for the Gunners between 2004 and 2012.
