Arsenal are intently monitoring Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, in line with Mundo Deportivo.
The Gunners at present have Viktor Gyokeres, Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus as their centre-forward choices, however the latter has been touted to go away on the finish of the season. Jesus will enter the ultimate yr of his Gunners deal this summer season and will pursue a brand new problem the place he has the reassurance of standard enjoying time.
Arsenal could desire a new striker within the squad for subsequent season and Mundo Deportivo declare that the Gunners are intently monitoring the scenario of Vlahovic alongside Bayern Munich and Barcelona. In the previous couple of hours, Atletico Madrid have additionally been supplied the prospect to signal the 26-year-old striker by means of an middleman.
Vlahovic’s present take care of Juventus expires on the finish of June and he has opted in opposition to a renewal. He has snubbed the membership’s £5m per yr wage supply to resume and desires at the least £7m per season. The Serbian has no plans to vary his stance and appears set to go away on a free switch settlement throughout the summer season.
Unlikely deal
Arsenal had been broadly fancied to signal Vlahovic throughout his time at Fiorentina in early 2022, however the Serbian ace most popular to remain in Serie A and ended up becoming a member of Juventus for £67 million. The deal was thought-about as an enormous setback for the Gunners on the time, however Vlahovic has not essentially hit the bottom operating in Turin.
Barring a good begin in his debut marketing campaign, he has failed to search out consistency along with his goalscoring. He has amassed a tally of simply 66 objectives from 166 matches for the Bianconeri, and has not fulfilled his full potential. Arsenal have as soon as once more been linked along with his companies, however they might not make a contract supply for him.
The Gunners have already got two high quality centre-forwards in Gyokeres and Havertz, and should desire a younger marksman, who can be taught from the duo as a third-choice answer. Vlahovic is unlikely to entertain such a task, and might want the assure of standard begins if he had been to affix the Gunners on a free switch deal this summer season.
Arsenal might also be unwilling to pay a hefty signing-on payment and wage to a participant, who has had loads of damage woes. He has missed nearly 50 matches for Juventus with numerous accidents. 50% of these video games have been this marketing campaign. Therefore, we don’t see the Gunners making a transfer for the previous Fiorentina sensation.
