Arsenal May Offer Star Player in Exchange Deal for £67 Million Striker

Arsenal is reportedly considering offering a high-profile player from Mikel Arteta’s squad in exchange for a highly-rated forward. This move comes as the Premier League title contenders look to address their recent struggles in breaking down opposing defenses.

The Gunners were held to a disappointing 0-0 draw against Everton at the Emirates Stadium, despite dominating possession and creating numerous chances. This marks the third consecutive Premier League match where Arsenal has failed to score from open play.

The draw was particularly frustrating for Arsenal fans, as title rivals Liverpool also dropped points against Fulham. Arsenal missed an opportunity to capitalize on this rare slip-up from Jurgen Klopp’s side.

In response to these offensive struggles, Arsenal is reportedly exploring the possibility of acquiring Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic. According to Italian outlet Spazio J, Arsenal may offer Gabriel Jesus as part of an exchange deal to secure Vlahovic’s services.

Vlahovic, valued at around £67 million, has been in impressive form this season, scoring 11 goals in 19 appearances across all competitions. The 24-year-old Serbian international is seen as a potential solution to Arsenal’s need for a prolific goalscorer.

While Gabriel Jesus has been a key player for Arsenal since joining from Manchester City, his goal return has been somewhat disappointing this season. The Brazilian striker has netted just once in all competitions, leading to speculation about his long-term future at the club.

Juventus would reportedly consider Jesus a suitable “big-name” replacement for Vlahovic if the deal were to materialize. Arsenal is said to be one of the most aggressive suitors for Vlahovic’s signature and is prepared to sanction a potential swap deal.

As the January transfer window approaches, Arsenal fans will be eagerly watching to see if this high-profile exchange comes to fruition and potentially bolsters their attacking options for the second half of the season.
