Aleksandr Golovin’s World Cup debut for Russia has put him in the rumour mill again, with the European media all talking about the midfielder.
Earlier, we covered claims from Mundo Deportivo about him, which said the player was offered to Barcelona, but was also wanted by Arsenal due to Arsene Wenger’s admiration for him whilst manager at the club.
Now Turin based newspaper Tuttosport comes up with more claims, saying that Golovin is actually a solid target for Juventus as well.
The outlet points out the player’s display against Saudi Arabia has turned out to be pretty exciting for CSKA Moscow, since the club will now increase their demands for him. The club were initially asking for €25m, but now this price tag should be increased.
When speaking of competition, Tuttosport has very similar claims to Mundo Deportivo’s. They mention Arsene Wenger’s interest, as the manager had already seen the player in action against the Gunners in the Europa League, when he also scored a free-kick goal.Even though it’s now Unai Emery who’s in charge, Tuttosport points out the ‘signs of a new attrmpt’ from Arsenal for the 22-year-old.
