BREAKING: Arsenal are reportedly preparing a double swoop on Juventus this summer, targeting striker Dušan Vlahović and winger Federico Chiesa to bolster their attacking options.

 

Dušan Vlahović, the 24-year-old Serbian international, has been on Arsenal’s radar for some time. Initially valued at €65 million, Juventus are now reportedly willing to accept offers around €40 million for the striker, partly due to financial considerations and his contract situation . Vlahović has netted 16 goals across all competitions this season, showcasing his prowess as a formidable forward .

 

Federico Chiesa, the 26-year-old Italian winger, is another key target for the Gunners. Juventus are reportedly open to selling Chiesa, with a price tag of around €60 million (£52 million) . Chiesa’s versatility across the front line and his impressive performances, including a standout role in Italy’s Euro 2020 victory, make him an attractive prospect for Arsenal .

 

Juventus’ willingness to part with both players stems from their need to balance the books and restructure the squad. The club is reportedly planning major sales this summer, with up to eight first-team players available for transfer .

 

Arsenal’s pursuit of Vlahović and Chiesa aligns with manager Mikel Arteta’s ambition to enhance the team’s attacking depth. Securing these signings could significantly strengthen the Gunners’ offensive capabilities ahead of the new season.
