Dusan Vlahovic had no idea about Arsenal offer

Dusan Vlahovic was never told about an offer from Arsenal in January.

The Gunners attempted to sign former Fiorentina forward Dusan Vlahovic back in January but the move failed to materialise and Vlahovic ended up in Juventus.

The Serbian forward scored nine goals in 21 matches for the Old Lady last season.

Vlahovic said: “Maybe my agent knows [about Arsenal’s offer] but I never talked to anyone about it.

“I just had one club in my mind because Juventus is Juventus. There is nothing else to say. And now I feel honoured to be given this jersey. It’s incredible every time I put it on.

“I definitely identify with their DNA. The Juventus personality coincides with my personality. When you come here you never give up, you fight all the time, you make the sacrifices. This was definitely what I was looking for.”

Arsenal are in desperate need of strikers for the upcoming season and Gabriel Jesus has emerged as their top priority.

Gabriel Jesus is expected to leave City this summer as he would go further down the pecking order following the arrival of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez.
