Arsenal should be “ready to please” Juventus and their winger Dejan Kulusevski amid reports linking him to a move to the Premier League.
Last week it was reported that Edu, technical director of Arsenal, “flew to Italy” to seal the signing. Juventus reportedly values him at £ 35 million.
Kulusevski joined Juventus last year for a fee that could reach around £ 37 million. Last season he was present for the Italian giants.

The 21-year-old has scored seven goals and seven assists in his 47 games in all competitions.
The winger has only started four times so far this season as he has fallen down the pecking order.
Gazzetta dello Sport (citado por Sports witness) report that Kulusevski is “replaceable” in the eyes of Juventus.
The report says Arsenal must be “ready to please” Juventus and the player if they want to sign him in January.
Elsewhere, Gabriel Agbonlahor has asked Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to resign from the Arsenal captaincy:
“I think Arteta is treating him well,” Agbonlahor told talkSPORT. “Arteta played at a great level, he played not long ago, so he will not accept any player who thinks he can do what he wants and have his own rules.
“When I was playing for Aston Villa, I resigned from the captaincy. I was captain of the club and I went on vacation during an international break and they caught me smoking shisha.
“As footballers, we are destined to be robots who are not allowed to do anything. I got really mad about it, so I gave up the bracelet. Maybe that’s something Aubameyang should do.
“I was not professional enough for that. You can be a great captain on the field, but if you are not doing things right, you cannot be a true captain. They were probably going to remove it anyway, but I felt like I wasn’t getting rid of it professionally enough.
“Because the club was so disappointed that it felt like the right thing to do… in my later years I was not a professional on and off the pitch, I will put my hands up for that.
I don’t think he’s going to give up. He might think in his head that he has done nothing wrong.
I was there when you were in a bad mood, when you weren’t playing that much.
“Maybe Aubameyang will look at himself and say, ‘You know what? I don’t deserve to be the captain of Arsenal. ‘ Someone else like Kieran Tierney, or maybe a younger guy like Bukayo Saka could do it.
