Dusan Vlahovic’s Agent Is Refusing to Take Calls from Arsenal
Transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio has claimed that Arsenal’s attempts to come to an agreement regarding Vlahovic are proving futile.
The journalist told Sky Italia: “In January it is an impossible operation because Fiorentina is asking for €80m (£68.4m).
“In June, Juve are in the running as well as many teams. The team most interested in Vlahovic for January is Arsenal. The English club has established a dialogue more than positive with Fiorentina and would be willing to satisfy the requests of the Viola club to reach an agreement.
“The problem is that Arsenal is unable to speak to the player’s agents, they do not answer the phone. The Gunners want to talk to the boy to explain their project to him, but this lack of answers make it impossible to enter into a negotiation.”
Dusan Vlahovic has already scored eight goals in 12 Serie A outings this season. But the striker is going to become a free agent when his Fiorentina contract runs up in 2023.
