Arsenal ready to make January move for transfer listed Juventus star

Juventus have transfer listed Manuel Locatelli and Arsenal are still interested in him.


Juventus have decided to make Manuel Locatelli available for transfer, according to CalcioMercato.

The Italian has been struggling for game time and given Juve’s budget, they’ve decided they cannot afford the luxury of such a player just sat on the bench.

Arsenal have long been keen on the midfielder and they are now considering another move in January.

Juve ready to sacrifice Locateelit & ready to pounce

Despite the uncertainty surrounding Massimiliano Allegri, Juve are ready to back his decision to sell the midfielder.

He is no longer seen as a starter under the Italian manager.

Therefore, given the Old Lady’s financial situation, Locatelli is now a player who they are ready to sacrifice.

Last summer, Juventus and Sassuolo agreed a two-year loan deal with a €25 million obligation to buy and €12 million in bonuses.

But now, the 24-year-old could be on the move again with Arsenal’s management keen to try again for him.

The Gunners are plotting to move for him either in January or next summer.

Locatelli’s departure will depend on how much money Arsenal offer and whether or not he works his way back into the team.
