Arsenal now interested in signing Italy's Euro 2024 star
Arsenal are reportedly keen on landing the signature of Bologna defender Riccardo Calafiori in the current transfer window.
The Gunners are currently evaluating the future of Jakub Kiwior and there is a possibility that he could be sold amid interest from Juventus and AC Milan.
With this in mind, they are open to landing another left-footed centre-back, who has the ability to operate from the left-back position too.
Calafiori has been identified as the perfect candidate. The 22-year-old is one of the best passers in Serie A. He has also impressed with his aerial presence.
The youngster recently made the headlines at the European Championship. He delivered a stunning assist for Italy's late equaliser against Croatia.
Bologna are not looking to part ways with Calafiori at the moment, but reports claim that they could be persuaded to accept €40 million.
Arsenal could recoup most of the transfer fee with the departure of Kiwior, who has also been linked with multiple Premier League teams.
