Arsenal very much in picture for summer signing – 21-year-old described as a ‘treasure’

Dusan Vlahovic has been a regular feature in the Italian rumour mill in recent weeks, with a growing number of clubs being linked with the Fiorentina player.

Calciomercato report that of the sides keen, there are five who are the ‘most active’ on the case, and Arsenal are named as one of them. Joining the Gunners are RB Leipzig, AC Milan, AS Roma and Atletico Madrid.

Vlahovic is described as a ‘treasure’ for the Florence club, and it’s said his value cannot be estimated. The Serie A side wouldn’t want to sell the 21-year-old in the summer window, however, tough finances in the current football world could change things should a battle start for his signature.

The striker moved to Fiorentina from Partizan in 2018, and this season has seen him produce performances and statistics which are catching attention around Europe. In 27 Serie A matches he’s scored 12 goals and added two assists.

Arsenal interest is likely to be dependent on what happens with Alexandre Lacazette in the next market. The Frenchman has been linked with several clubs, including in Serie A, and should he leave the London club then it would make a Gunners swoop for the Serbian likelier.
