Juventus have reportedly made a bid for Fiorentina striker Stevan
Jovetic, which may derail a potential move to Arsenal, according to
Italian source Tutto Sport.
The
Turin giants are keen on bringing in new strikers this summer to
strengthen their squad for a Champions League push next year, as well as
to help assert their dominance in Serie A with a third consecutive
title.
Mirko Vucinic could leave the club after being linked with Manchester
United, and Jovetic is seen as a good option for Antonio Conte’s side
for a fee of around £20million.
However, while that’s the price
Arsenal are being quoted, Fiorentina may up their asking price as they
are not keen on selling their star player to a rival Italian team.
Jovetic
has previously said that he is flattered by Arsenal’s interest and that
he would welcome a move to English football, so the Gunners will be
hoping to land their prime target and strengthen their striking options
next season as they look to end their eight-year wait for silverware.
The Gunners have also been linked with Gonzalo Higuain, who has been put up for sale by Real Madrid.
