Manchester United transfer decision leaves Edu with major Gabriel Jesus replacement headache

Despite being snubbed this time last year, Arsenal have re-ignited their interest in Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic ahead of the January transfer window. Following Gabriel Jesus' injury at the World Cup, the Gunners may be forced to add another striker to Mikel Arteta's side next month and the Serbian has been tipped to be that man.

Jesus looks set to be out until February at the earliest after undergoing surgery on his right knee after suffering the injury at the World Cup with Brazil. Reports over the past week have claimed that the club have contacted Vlahovic's representatives over a possible deal next month, with following reports in Italy also suggesting Arteta's side are one of many clubs to be monitoring the striker's situation at the Turin-based side.

Vlahovic, 22, only joined the Old Lady last January in a deal worth £62million but faces the possibility of cutting his time short due to the Serie A giants' financial issues. Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain have all been credited with interest, but a fresh report from Corrierre dello Sport has claimed Manchester United have entered the race for his signature.
