Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger wants to take Cech from Stamford Bridge to bolster his side's title hopes next season.
While Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho would prefer to sell the 33-year-old abroad - with Paris Saint-Germain interested - the player is keen on joining the Gunners.
And according to the Daily Star, Blues owner Roman Abramovich will respect Cech's wishes and let him move to Arsenal as thanks for his 11 years' service at Stamford Bridge.
Mourinho has considered a host of replacements for Cech, to provide competition to No 1 Thibaut Courtois.
