It was reported last month that Arsenal had struck a deal to sign Dusan Vlahovic.
The Fiorentina hitman is one of the most exciting young strikers in European football.
And when Di Marzio reported that Arsenal had an agreement with the Italian club, it was exciting.
Well, exciting for the Gunners, that is.
And if this deal does indeed get done, it’s a massive coup for the North Londoners.
That’s because Vlahovic is just brilliant, isn’t he?
The Serbian was among the goals yet again as Fiorentina beat Sampdoria 3-1 on Tuesday night.
In doing so, Vlahovic now has 29 goals in 39 Serie A games in 2021 to date – a staggering return.
In light of last month’s news, Arsenal fans have been keeping a close eye on his performances since the speculation.
And here’s how they’re reacting to his performance last night:
Are Arsenal signing Dusan Vlahovic?
Despite the speculation, probably not, no.
There’s no doubt that Arsenal are a big club but let’s be honest, Vlahovic is approaching Erling Haaland-type levels.
At only 21, there’ll be bigger – and richer – outfits with a massive interest in signing the young marksman.A
And with his contract expiring in 2023, this might be sooner rather than later.
The truth is that Arsenal can’t offer him anything than other clubs cannot and for that reason, a move to the Emirates seems such a long shot.
