Dusan Vlahovic has told Fiorentina that he will not be rushed into a transfer amid interest from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal and Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur, according to 90min.
90min have reported that Arsenal are keen on signing Vlahovic from Fioentina in the January transfer window.
The Gunners are in talks with Fiorentina over the transfer of the 21-year-old striker this month.
The London Evening Standard reported this week that Tottenham are also interested in securing the services of the youngster.
90min are now reporting that Vlahovic has told Fiorentina that he will not be forced into making a move now.
The Serbian striker will make a decision when he is ready, and his preference is to move in the summer of 2022.
Tottenham, Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea all are interested in Vlahovic, according to 90min.
Could Dusan Vlahovic join Arsenal or Tottenham?
In our view, Arsenal and Tottenham could find it hard to sign Vlahovic from Fiorentina in the January transfer window.
If the striker does not want to leave now, then it is really hard to see Fiorentina being successful in their effort to force him to leave now.
In our opinion, it would make sense for Vlahovic to make a decision in the summer of 2022.
The striker will have more time to look at all the offers and will be able to make a more informed decision.
Vlahovic has scored 16 goals and provided two assists in Serie A so far this season, and scored 21 goals and gave three assists in the league in 2020-21.
