Chelsea look set to hijack Arsenal's move for Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic with a potential January transfer as reports state that the Blues are one of several clubs who have made "contact" with his agent. The Gunners have long been linked with a switch for the Serbia international, but missed out on him to the Bianconeri back in January.
It seemed as though their striker conundrum was solved this campaign with the signing of Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City, with the Brazilian offering plenty in his all-round play. The 25-year-old even earned a call-up to the Brazil World Cup squad, but injury is set to sideline him for months.
"We look at the squad and see what options we have our with the players we have available. There are things we can try, we have the need to do so," Mikel Arteta said recently, hinting at activity in the January window. "I feel my squad is really good, and unfortunately we’ve had injuries, but we will see what we can do to be stronger."
