Arsenal are looking forward to a double swoop for Arthur and Dejan Kulusevski of Juventus. The Gunners are ready to spend in the transfer market next month, and the two players have emerged as possible targets for them.
Arthur has failed to establish himself as a regular in the first team since joining from Barcelona. The Brazilian midfielder has found himself out of favour this season as well, and is ready to bring his spell in Turin to an end. He is behind the likes of Manuel Locatelli and Rodrigo Bentacur in the pecking order. This season, he has only played 101 minutes for Juventus.
Arthur has a market value of €35 million and has four years remaining on his current deal. But, he could be sold for a cut price in the upcoming transfer window.
Why is Juventus’ Kulusevski on the transfer list?
Dejan Kulusevski, on the other hand, has found himself out of the starting eleven regularly. He was named the Serie A youngster of the year in 2019/20, after loan spells at Parma and Atalanta. But, the Swedish winger struggled under Andrea Pirlo, as well as Max Allegri right now.
🚨 Juventus will allow Dejan Kulusevski, who has been a target for Arsenal, leave in January as he is unhappy at his amount of playing time.

As a result, Kulusevski and his agent are pushing for a move away from the Italian club in favour of more game time.
Arsenal have made contact with the Italian club about Kulusevski. They have made a €29.5 million offer for the 21-year-old, but Juventus are holding out for a €40 million offer for their player.
