Arsenal 'bring new goalkeeping coach on board as reshuffle continues'

Former Reading goalkeeping coach Sal Bibbo joins Arsenal as part of their backroom reshuffle, according to a report.

Arsenal have reportedly recruited Sal Bibbo as their new goalkeeping coach as part of the ongoing reshuffle of Arsene Wenger's backroom staff.

The 42-year-old represented eight clubs during his playing days, beginning with Basingstoke Town in 1992 through to Bath City in 2001.

Bibbo has since spent time coaching with Reading and, according to The Mirror, he is now a part of Arsenal's staff ahead of the 2017-18 campaign.

Bibbo was pictured with the Gunners' first-choice keeper Petr Cech on Thursday and will now continue in the role for the long term.

Arsenal have also brought in former stopper Jens Lehmann this week, though he will take up a first-team coaching position, while Andy Woodman is to take charge of the Under-23s and Australian fitness expert Darren Burgess will soon join.
