DBasia.news – The backline is the sector that Arsenal wants to fix. Reportedly, the Gunners are eyeing Juventus defender Daniele Rugani.
Arsenal are one of the most active English teams in the transfer market. The Gunners have brought in several new players like Dani Ceballos and Gabriel Martinelli.
Do not stop there, Arsenal are also trying to bring the mainstay of Lille players, Nicolas Pepe. The London club has set aside 80 million euros which will be paid in installments.
After the front and back lines were felt enough, Arsenal began to turn to the heart of the defense. Because the sector became one of Arsenal’s weaknesses last season.
In the search, Arsenal headed for Serie A, more precisely Juventus. Corriere Torino reports, Arsenal are trying to bring Daniele Rugani in the transfer market this summer.
Daniele Rugani is reportedly willing to accept Arsenal’s offer. The Italian didn’t want to stay at Juventus because of minimal playing opportunities.
The situation is increasingly difficult for Rugani because Juventus bring in two new defenders namely Matthijs de Ligt and Merih Demiral. Rugani is predicted to be only the fourth choice for Maurizio Sarri.
One thing that has hampered Rugani’s move to Arsenal is the price. Arsenal reportedly do not have the funds to hook the player. As a result, the loan formula will be tried by the Gunners.
Arsenal’s finances are unstable after failing to qualify for the Champions League 201-2020. When bringing Dani Ceballos too, Arsenal only uses a loan scheme without the option of redemption.
Arsenal’s chances of getting Daniel Rugani: 40 percent
Arsenal need to find a source of funds to get Daniele Rugani. The Gunners can sell Laurent Koscielny who is not at home defending at the Emirates Stadium.
