Edu to be in Turin to Complete €29m Transfer for Arsenal

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Juventus attacker Dejan Kulusevski.

According to newspaper La Repubblicaboth North London clubs are interested in the Sweden international but the Gunners are the frontrunners for his signature. In fact, the club’s technical director Edu is supposed to fly to Turin to complete a deal for Kulusevski, who Juventus do not mind selling.

The Bianconeri want around €41m for the 21-year-old but Arsenal believe they can get him for €29m. Provided the Gunners sign Kulusevski, they will look to sell Nicolas Pepe.

The Sweden international has made 19 appearances for Juve, scoring a goal against Zenit while providing a couple of assists. He has mostly featured as a substitute under Massimiliano Allegri and it looks very unlikely that he will be a regular for the Bianconeri.

Kulusevski would be a good signing for Arsenal and there is little doubt that he will receive more starts under Mikel Arteta.
