Arsenal had their sights set on signing Mijailo Mudryk in the January transfer window to strengthen their attack in a bid to win the Premier League, but a late move by Chelsea saw the Ukrainian finally move to Stamford Bridge. Arsenal will not, however, stand still and will continue to look to add to their title-chasing squad.

Interest in Vlahovic

Manager Mikel Arteta believes it is vital to sign a striker to win the title and fight for the Europa League. The injury to Gabriel Jesus makes the signing of a striker a top priority and the Spanish boss already has a clear target in the shape of Dusan Vlahovic. According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, Arsenal are preparing an offer of €80 million to try to sign the Serbian striker.

Arsenal targeting Rice

Juventus could ask for more than €100 million for the young striker player. The financial situation of the Italian club is very delicate and they are not ruling out selling the Serbia international, despite being one of the key players at the club. Arsenal are also interested in signing midfielder Declan Rice from London rivals West Ham.
