Arsenal are ready to sign Florentina Dusan Vlahovic at whopping £150m deal.
Gatekeepers News reports that Arsenal have approached Florentina for the signing of Vlahovic at a total deal of £150million.
Although the Gunners have not been put off by the huge financial outlay, they are working to seal a deal to sign a player recognised as one of the best emerging talents in European football.
Head coach Mikel Arteta wanted a new centre forward and the club have identified the Fiorentina star as their preferred option in this opened transfer window.
The Gunners similarly have an interest in Everton’s Dominic Calvert-Lewin, but the chances of luring the England star from Goodison Park in January appear remote.
According to reports, the Gunners have been quoted a minimum £58million transfer fee for Vlahovic, while the Serbia international will command £160,000-per-week after tax in wages over a five year contract – which equates to just over £300,000-per-week.
Arsenal and north London rivals Tottenham are the clubs that have enquired about the potential cost of a deal to sign the young football star.
Gatekeepers News also understood that clubs interested in the centre forward have also been informed that the deal will also include £15million in fees to the player’s camp.
