Arsenal fans will be well acquainted with Vlahovic as he was heavily linked with a move to north London in January 2022. The Gunners, who were at the time in a similarly desperate situation, made an offer of £50million plus Lucas Torreira, which was rejected by Fiorentina.

Vlahovic later completed a £66.6m move to Italian giants Juve on a four-and-a-half-year deal. He later revealed he had no intention of joining Arsenal.

"Maybe my agent knows [about Arsenal's offer] but I never talked to anyone about it," Vlahovic said in an interview with "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."

Vlahovic has gone on to score 40 Serie A goals in 91 appearances for Juventus. And while Arsenal were initially expected to wait until this summer to conduct their business for a striker, their injury situation and waning title aspirations may have added a sense of urgency in landing a prolific forward.
