Dusan Vlahovic: Arsenal are working on a £58m transfer for the Fiorentina striker

[ad_1]

Arsenal are working on a deal worth around £58m to sign the Fiorentina striker, who has been one of the most prolific strikers in Europe this season. Tottenham are also interested in the 21-year-old Serbia international, but Arsenal are ready to intensify talks in a bid to lure him to the Emirates Stadium.

Vlahovic scored 23 goals in 29 games with Fiorentina this season. He is said to be demanding wages of up to £300,000 a week and it remains to be seen if he will accept a move to Arsenal as they face huge competition for the top scorer.

Juventus and Manchester City have also been linked with Vlahovic, but Arsenal are hoping to impress him with the project Mikel Arteta is building at the club.

Valhovic refuses to sign a new contract with Fiorentina and the only question is whether he will leave Serie A now or in the summer.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang appears to have no future under Arteta after he was stripped of the captaincy last month following a disciplinary offense, while Alexandre Lacazette’s contract expires in the summer.

Point is also in the final six months of his contract and has turned down a new deal, and Palace are in talks to sign him. The 22-year-old has only made three substitute appearances in the league this season and wants football on a regular basis.

He started his 1-0 FA Cup loss on Sunday at the hands of Nottingham Forest, but had a quiet afternoon and missed Arsenal’s best chance when they failed to convert a free header.

His departure would leave Arsenal lacking in stunning options, and Arteta will only approve Nkiti’s exit if he can bring someone in.

Palace attempted to sign Nketiah in the summer but the deal fell apart and instead they moved to sign Odson Edward in a £15m transfer from Celtic.
