Arsenal transfer news: Updates about Isak, Osimhen and Vlahovic
The January transfer window is already open and will run until 3 February. There are rumours that Gunners can sign a striker mid-season due the ongoing problems at the club. Gianluca Di Marzio has provided updates about the situation.
Di Marzio said that Isak and Osimhen are topics of summer transfer window. He added that Newcastle United will not let Isak leave them this month. The Sweedish striker is very difficult to replace especially in the middle of the season.
Osimhen is very heavily linked with a move to Man United. However, there are no concrete reports about the deal. Lastly, Di Marzio said that Vlahovic is the option for Arsenal in January window. He ended by saying the Serbian is their target and the North London club likes him.
Di Marzio’s comments suggest that Vlahovic is the only available option for Gunners in winter. Juventus are ready to let the 24 year old leave as he has only 18 months left on his contract. The Serbian has been a long term target for the North London club.
Gunners first wanted to sign Vlahovic in 2022 when he joined Juventus. Since then, he has played 124 games for the Old Lady and responded with 53 goals and 11 assists. This season, the 24 year old has 12 goals and 2 assists in 22 games.
