It has recently been reported that Arsenal have reignited their interest in Dusan Vlahovic.
90Min are now corroborating that story, but unfortunately for the Gunners, bringing the Serbian to the Emirates seems to be something of an impossible task at the moment.
Indeed, despite Juventus’ struggled in Serie A, 90Min’s sources are led to believe that the striker has no intention to leave Turin at the moment.
Vlahovic, of course, only arrived at Juve in January in a big-money transfer from Fiorentina, and he’s not ready to give up on playing for the Italian giants just yet.
Historically, Juventus are one of the very best teams in Italy, but since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo they’ve not looked like challenging for major honours.
The sad reality is that the core of Juve’s all-conquering 2010s team is crumbling. Giorgio Chiellini has gone, Paulo Dybala left this summer, while Matthijs De Ligt, who was meant to replace Chiellini, has also left the club.
However, despite all of the turmoil at The Old Lady right now, Vlahovic isn’t keen to leave.
The ‘lightning’ striker is actually one of the only bright sparks at Juve at the moment, netting four goals in six Serie A appearances, and if they are to get back on track, they’ll need to keep hold of Vlahovic.
However, while a January transfer is seemingly out of the question, there is a pertaining interest in his services from both Arsenal and Tottenham, and if things don’t improve under Massimiliano Allegri soon, Vlahovic could begin looking into his escape routes.
The towering striker would be a real hit for Arsenal, or he would be the perfect Harry Kane replacement at Spurs, but sadly, right now, the Juventus star is unattainable for either north London club.
