Arsenal are in talks to lure 41-year-old Jens Lehmann out of retirement to help ease their goalkeeping crisis, BBC Sport understands.
Injuries to Wojciech Szczesny, Lukasz Fabianski and Vito Mannone have left Manuel Almunia as the only fit keeper.
Lehmann made 199 appearances for Arsenal between 2003 and 2008 but has been a free agent since retiring in 2010 after two years with Stuttgart.
The deal for the ex-Germany keeper is set to be until the end of the season.
If the deal is finalised, Lehmann could be included in the squad for Saturday's trip to West Brom.
