Juventus interested in signing former Arsenal attacker

Roma midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has emerged as a potential transfer target for Juventus this summer.

The Armenian left the Gunners to join AS Roma on an initial loan last season before securing a permanent transfer.

During this time at Roma, he has excelled with 20 goals and 16 assists from just 65 appearances in all competitions.

His current deal expires in June, but he has expressed the willingness to sign another contract extension with the Giallorossi.

According to Calciomercato, the Bianconeri are monitoring his situation and may make an approach to sign him in the summer.

Mkhitaryan has directly contributed to 17 of Roma's 44 goals this campaign and the Bianconeri regarded him as value for money.

Juventus are currently third in the Serie A standings with 42 points, seven behind leaders AC Milan with a game in hand.

The Turin giants have won the league title for the past nine years. They are facing a tough test this term with both Milan and Inter staying consistent.
