Arsenal Football Club are reportedly considering a strategic shift in their transfer plans, aiming to bolster their attacking options sooner rather than later.
According to sources close to the club, the Gunners have intensified their pursuit of Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, exploring the possibility of bringing him in during the upcoming January transfer window.
While Arsenal had initially planned to wait until next summer to address their striker needs, Vlahovic’s contract situation at Juventus has prompted a change of course.
The Serbian international is yet to agree on a new deal with the Italian giants, leaving the door open for a potential departure.
This development has also caught the attention of Juventus themselves, who have begun to consider Sesko, a highly-rated young striker, as a potential replacement for Vlahovic.
This potential domino effect could create an opportunity for Arsenal to capitalize on.
If Juventus decides to sell Vlahovic this winter to avoid losing him on a free transfer, Arsenal are prepared to step in and make a significant offer.
A transfer fee in the region of €60 million is being discussed, which could also help Juventus fund a move for Sesko in the summer.
