Arsenal fancied to return for Juventus striker

Arsenal have been fancied to make a fresh approach to sign Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic during the January transfer window.

The Gunners were keen on landing the Serbian in January last year when he was plying his trade in Serie A with Fiorentina.

Vlahovic was not convinced over joining the Gunners, who were not in the Champions League, but much has changed since.

Mikel Arteta's side are now competing at the top end of the table and Tuttosport claim that Vlahovic is back on their radar.

The Gunners are prepared to pay around €40m for his services but the Bianconeri are said to want at least €60m to sell him.

Despite this, the negotiations could continue in the coming weeks and it is claimed that a middle ground could be reached.

The Bianconeri are interested in landing Charlie Patino and he could be included as a makeweight in the potential deal.

Patino is expected to be sold at some point next year with his reluctance to extend his contract beyond the summer of 2025.
