Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, will pick David Ospina to start Saturday’s FA Cup final against Chelsea at Wembley.

According to Mirror Football, the Frenchman will select Ospina ahead of first-choice goalkeeper, Petr Cech. This will come as a shock to Cech, who was desperate to play against his old side.

It is even more bizarre, given that Ospina is in advanced talks with Turkish club, Fenerbahce.

The 28-year-old is expected to leave the Emirates, after getting frustrated at being second choice to Cech.

Cech played in the semi-final against Manchester and Wenger even hinted this week that he would play at Wembley.

Arsenal is also facing a defensive crisis, with Laurent Koscielny suspended and Gabriel out injured.FA Cup final: Wenger to start Ospina against Chelsea
