Arsenal are reportedly plotting an audacious €110m (£98m) raid for TWO Juventus stars in the January transfer window.
The Gunners enjoyed a successful summer window and subsequently sit top of the Premier League as English football pauses for the international break.
However, Mikel Arteta will be well aware that the gap between themselves and Manchester City remains a considerable one. More work needs to be done.
While Arteta is very much a training ground coach and will be working tirelessly on that side of the operation, Edu also needs to kick on in the market.
According to Calciomercato, they have every intention of doing that this coming January by bidding €110m (£98m) for two Juventus players.
The players in question are Dusan Vlahovic, a target from last January, and teenage midfield sensation Fabio Miretti, who is in first-team contention in Turin.
Whether the Gunners will be successful in their efforts to recruit either player remains to be seen – but it’s a signal of serious intent from Arteta and co.
