Arsenal are set for a busy final few weeks in the January transfer window as they seek to bolster Mikel Arteta's depleted ranks.
The Gunners were forced to postpone their North London Derby against Tottenham due to the lack of available players and have a desperate need for new faces.
Controversially, there has been a number of outgoing deals despite the lack of available players, and a wealth of rumours are floating about regarding new recruits.
Dusan Vlahovic continues to be the name on everyone's lips regarding the hunt for a new striker and reports in Italy, cited by Sport Witness, indicate the next 48 hours could be crucial.
It's indicated Arsenal will 'formalise a big offer' to Fiorentina, hitting around the €70m mark, while they're also said to be prepared to pay Vlahovic €19m per season and pay 'maxi-commission' to his agent.
Arsenal have 'decided to dive into the operation' this month for two reasons, said to be due to the increased interest in the summer and the fact the Gunners want the signing now.
Elsewhere in Italy, Corriere dello Sport via Sport Witness suggest that Roma could revive their interest in Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka this summer.
The Switzerland international was heavily touted to unite with Jose Mourinho in the Italian capital and it's said he 'doesn't seem happy to have stayed at Arsenal'.
Finally, Tutto Mercato state Alexandre Lacazette has rejected a proposal from Newcastle United to join the club this month.
The mega-rich club are looking to splash the cash this month but have found it difficult to push through deals, with the latest disappointment coming from Lacazette as he doesn't want to join.
