Turner started playing soccer when he was 14 years old, at first doing so to keep himself in shape for his main sports, baseball, and basketball. When the only other goalkeeper on his freshman team was hurt during tryouts, he began playing in net. Matt Turner Arsenal is scheduled to arrive this summer in a transaction reportedly worth around £5 million, which is twice his market value at the time the agreement was made (he is currently valued at £4.5 million).
