Arsenal have been recently linked with a move for Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic.

The 23-year-old former Fiorentina forward has been on the radars of Arsenal as a top transfer target.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is yet to sign a proper number nine for Arsenal since taking over as manager in 2019.

Still flaunting the tiki-taka style of play, the La Masia product has relied heavily on attacking midfielders to poach goals for the club.

Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus are currently serving the role for the London club but it appears they are losing it in the attack. Pundits believe Mikel Arteta can put finishing touches to his in-form Arsenal squad with a proper nine.

Manchester City won the Premier League in 2021/22 season without a proper attacker. Pep Guardiola's tiki-taka paid off with his midfielders harvesting the goals.

However, City needed Erling Haaland to complete the squad and sharpen their attack last season. The Norwegian sensation hurled in 54 goals in all competitions and the incredible tally was enough to make a difference and saw City bring home a treble of Champions League, Premier League, and the FA Cup.

Since last season, Arsenal have established themselves as potent title contenders. However, their chances of winning a title is slim with no recognized striker.

It is understood Mikel Arteta is hopeful of revolutionizing Arsenal's frontline by introducing a traditional striker to the squad this summer.

Arteta has been eyeing a move for Brentford forward Ivan Toney. Recently, the club has been linked with a move for Victor Osimhen.

Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus is also making the cut of targeted strikers by the London outfit but it appears the club are set to suffer setback in their move for the Serbian sensation.

According to Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli, Juventus are not ready to part ways with Dusan Vlahovic.

Dusan Vlahovic started his career with Serbian side Partizan in 2016. He made 21 appearances for the club, scoring one goal.

In 2018, he joined Fiorentina, made 98 appearances for the club, and scored 44 goals. He is currently plying his trade with Juventus, and has scored 23 goals in 58 Serie A appearances for the club.

Do you think he is a good fit for Arsenal?
