Arsenal’s enduring interest in Dusan Vlahovic has been a focal point of ongoing discussions, gaining traction in recent weeks. Gary Cotterill, speaking on The Arsenal Beat podcast, disclosed that the Gunners are maintaining their interest in the Juventus forward. Cotterill hinted at the possibility of Juventus entertaining a ‘cash-plus-player offer’ for the talented player, with the added consideration of tax restrictions in Italy.
Recent reports from Italian outlet TV Play shed light on a potential Arsenal player being part of the Vlahovic deal, specifically Charlie Patino. The outlet highlighted that Arsenal, under the management of Mikel Arteta, consistently expressed admiration for Vlahovic. Despite a failed attempt to secure his signature two years ago, the Gunners are contemplating reopening negotiations this month.
According to TV Play’s sources, Arsenal is actively devising a strategy to approach Vlahovic, proposing not only a substantial cash offer but also the unexpected inclusion of Patino, currently on loan at Swansea City.
The potential acquisition of Vlahovic is viewed as a significant opportunity for Arsenal, with even Kylian Mbappe lauding him as “one of the best of his generation.”
