As per Sky Sports reports, Arsenal plans to reenter the transfer market to pursue their long-standing interest in Dusan Vlahovic during the upcoming summer.
Juventus might consider selling the Serbian striker for a sum of €60 million, a figure that could convince the club to part ways with him. Vlahovic has been associated with a potential move to Arsenal since his days at Fiorentina. Despite this interest, he joined Juventus in January 2022.
During his time with the Old Lady, Vlahovic has appeared in 79 games, scoring 29 goals and providing eight assists. In the current season, he has participated in 16 matches, netting six goals and contributing two assists.
However, Vlahovic’s performance at Juventus doesn’t match his remarkable goal-scoring ratio at Fiorentina. Many believe that the defensive tactics employed by Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri might not entirely suit the attacking style of the 23-year-old forward.
Arsenal has faced challenges in their attacking department this season, scoring 37 goals in 20 Premier League games. While Gabriel Jesus brings more to the game than just scoring goals, Arsenal is in need of a prolific striker to lead their front line.
The club has been linked with Brentford’s Ivan Toney for some time. However, Brentford’s manager Thomas Frank indicated that Toney might not be available for transfer in January unless an exceptionally compelling offer is made.
Therefore, Arsenal may aim to secure a new striker in the summer transfer window. Vlahovic, at 23, has once again emerged as a primary target for the North London club. He boasts an impressive record in Serie A, with 67 goals and 12 assists in 156 games across various competitions.
Vlahovic has also represented his country 25 times, scoring 13 goals. Although he is contracted with Juventus until 2026, a bid of €60 million might sway Juventus to consider allowing him to depart.
