Arsenal have made no signings during the winter transfer window, but there could be some activity soon.

The Gunners are short in the final third after injuries to Gabriel Jesus and Bukayo Saka. Manager Mikel Arteta has acknowledged that the club are exploring options in the transfer market.

Calciomercato claims Arsenal have made contact with the representative of Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic, who could leave Turin before the transfer deadline.

The Bianconeri are on the verge of signing Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani on loan. This could pave the way for Vlahovic’s exit due to his contract situation.

Vlahovic has less than 18 months left on his contract and has yet to agree fresh terms. Juventus are open to sanctioning his sale for this winter.

Vlahovic would be a risky gamble for Arsenal

The 24-year-old was compared with Erling Braut Haaland during his time at Fiorentina. He made the switch to Juventus in January 2022 after a fantastic year with 34 goals.

He has since struggled to score with the same consistency. Vlahovic has scored only 53 goals in 125 appearances for the Bianconeri.

Signing Vlahovic on a permanent basis would be a risky gamble. The striker has failed to meet expectations since his big-money move to Turin after rejecting Arsenal.

Vlahovic has a worrying injury record and is often wasteful in front of goal. The Gunners cannot afford to spend big on a striker with those traits.

Arsenal should propose a loan with an option to buy to assess whether he can adapt to the higher intensity of English football.
