Arsenal could make a triple swoop to sign three Juventus players in January, Marca claim.
Triple swoop incoming?
The Spanish newspaper says that Arsenal are eyeing up a triple swoop, with Mikel Arteta determined to strengthen his midfield options next month.
Arsenal are fully aware that Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny are both set to depart for the African Cup of Nations in January, which will severely deplete their midfield options.
They could call upon Granit Xhaka, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Albert Sambi Lokonga, but the latest transfer update suggests that the North London club are planning additions of their own.
It says that a ‘sensational’ move for Ramsey is potentially on the cards.
Ramsey, of course, cried when he left Arsenal back in 2019, after 11 years of service to the club.
His move to Juventus hasn’t really worked out, as he has been unable to show his best in Italy, and he could now be available on the cheap.
Arthur also seems to need rescuing from the San Siro, as his time in Turin has also not gone according to plan.
Arthur joined Juve from Barcelona in 2020, but he hasn’t really caught the eye since the switch.
The Brazilian is an excellent technician though, and he could slot in well in the Gunners’ midfield.
Arguably the most exciting target of the three is Dejan Kulusevski.
Kulusevski may not quite have broken into Juve’s team on a consistent basis, but he is widely regarded as one of the best young talents in Italy.
Arsenal are only £9 million away from reaching Juventus’s asking price for the winger, with contact apparently already made.
And if Arsenal could agree a fee, then the move to the Emirates Stadium could be even more appealing if two of his friends follow him to North London next month.
