Arsenal are still interested in Dusan Vlahovic since 2021, and the Serbian striker could still end up joining the Premier League giants.
The Gunners attempted to sign him in the summer of 2022, but when Juventus intensified their pursuit earlier that year, Arsenal matched their efforts.
Ultimately, Vlahovic had to choose between the two clubs and opted to join Juventus instead of moving to the Emirates.
However, Arsenal has yet to secure a top striker and continues to monitor Vlahovic’s situation, which could prove advantageous in the upcoming January transfer window.
The striker is currently at a contract impasse with Juventus, who can no longer afford the €12 million salary package they initially agreed upon. While Juve is keen for Vlahovic to extend his contract at a reduced salary over a longer term, his representatives have not agreed to these terms.
At present, Vlahovic’s camp is unwilling to accept a wage reduction, which may force Juventus to consider selling him.
According to a report by Calciomercato, (as per justarsenal.com) offloading Vlahovic is indeed an option, and Arsenal is keeping a close eye on the situation. The Gunners could even make a move for his signature in January.
