Cech has been tipped for a move away from Stamford Bridge and a fee of £10million has been bandied around as the required amount to sign him.
Arsene Wenger downplayed talk of a move for Cech on Friday when pressed about his transfer plans, as he said: "We don't necessarily need a new goalkeeper.
"The goalkeepers I have I believe in - Wojciech Szczesny has been very good and David Ospina has done very well.

"You only have to look at his stats."
But the Mail on Sunday suggest Arsenal are ready to make an enquiry for Cech's services.
Petr Cech is on Arsenal's radar
They claim that while Wenger has yet to make a decision about whether or not to replace David Ospina as his top choice goalkeeper, they feel they will be given a clear run at Cech should he decide to leave the Blues.
Arsenal are also chasing a deal for Morgan Schneiderlin, who could cost in excess of £25m.
