Arsenal are now keen on Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic, Calcio Mercato report.

Arsenal have been linked with a number of strikers heading into the summer transfer window, with Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah’s futures uncertain.

And it seems that Vlahovic is the latest name on the Gunners’ wishlist, if reports from Italy are to be believed.

Vlahovic has already been linked with the Premier League heading into the summer, with West Ham United said to have an interest.

But it is Arsenal now who have sat up and taken notice of the 21-year-old.

That should be no surprise, given his recent performances in Serie A have certainly drawn attention.

Vlahovic hit a 34 minute hat-trick in Fiorentina’s game against Benevento just two weeks ago, which may have been the reason why Arsenal’s scouts have apparently taken interest.

The triple strike has taken the youngster’s tally to 12 for the season in Italy’s top flight, and he could now be another promising option for Arsenal, with Mikel Arteta seemingly looking to create a youthful squad, which is packed with potential.

CalcioMercato have recently reported that any buying club would have to pay £35 million for Vlahovic.
