Arsenal tempted to 'reshape' January transfer plan amid Dusan Vlahovic availability - with Mikel Arteta an 'admirer' of Juventus striker

The Gunners might consider reshaping their transfer plans for the January window with Juventus ready to put Vlahovic up for sale. Per Football Transfers, the Bianconeri, who are planning to reduce their wage bill, are reportedly open to parting ways with their highest-earning player and would demand a fee of €55 million (£45.6m/$56.6m).

Gunners boss Arteta is known to be an admirer of the Serbian striker and wanted to sign him from Fiorentina first in January 2022, however, Vlahovic eventually moved to Turin. The 24-year-old forward will perfectly fit into Arteta's system as the club are actively looking for attacking options, especially after Bukayo Saka's long-term injury.

In the 2024-25 campaign, Vlahovic has appeared for Thiago Motta's Juventus side in 23 matches across all competitions so far, scoring 12 goals while also providing two assists.

After a disappointing loss to Newcastle United at home in the first leg of their Carabao Cup semi-final tie on Tuesday, Arsenal will be back in action on Sunday as they host Manchester United in a third-round FA Cup clash.
