Empoli midfielder Samuele Ricci emerges as a January transfer target for Arsenal, according to a report.

Arsenal could reportedly move for Empoli midfielder Samuele Ricci during the January transfer window.

The 20-year-old has been in impressive form for his Italian club during the 2021-22 campaign, making 20 appearances in all competitions, contributing one goal and one assist in the process.

Arsenal are said to be keen to sign a new defensive midfielder this month, and according to Gazzetta dello Sport, Ricci has emerged as a genuine target for the North London club.

The report, though, claims that Empoli view the youngster as a 'phenomenon' and would only sell him if a substantial offer arrived, with the Italian's contract due to run until June 2024.

Ricci, who came through the youth system at his Italian club, has featured on 18 occasions in Serie A during the 2021-22 campaign.

Arsenal are also said to be keen to sign Dusan Vlahovic this month but might have to wait until the summer transfer window to bring the Fiorentina striker to the Emirates Stadium.
