Juventus have offered Moise Kean in a part-exchange deal for Arsenal midfielder Charlie Patino, according to Tuttosport.
The Bianconeri have been closely following the progress of Patino and they are prepared to make a formal move to sign him this winter.
The Turin giants were initially planning a summer proposal but have fastened their pursuit with Inter Milan also exploring a deal.
Tuttosport claim that the Bianconeri can't afford the €20m asking price and they will be aiming to lower the fee in a swap deal.
Kean, who was previously with Everton, could be offered to the Gunners as a makeweight to sign the 20-year-old midfielder next month.
Patino is presently on a season-long loan at Swansea City. He has been impressive for them with seven goal contributions this term.
The Gunners are prepared to sell their graduate by next summer but it seems unlikely that they will consider Juventus' proposal.
Kean has not lived up to the early expectations and the Gunners would be making a huge mistake by bringing him to the Emirates.
