Juventus have reportedly agreed an initial €67m (£56.2m) deal for Fiorentina forward Dusan Vlahovic.
The Serbia international has rejected the opportunity to extend his stay with La Viola beyond the summer of 2023 and has been strongly linked with a switch to Arsenal in the January transfer window.
However, Mikel Arteta's side were left frustrated in their pursuit of the 21-year-old, as Vlahovic supposedly harboured doubts about a move to the Emirates Stadium.
The Gunners now appear to have conceded defeat in the race for Vlahovic's signature, as football.london's Chris Wheatley reports that Juve have agreed a big-money deal to bring the striker to Turin.
Vlahovic is supposedly set to complete his Bianconeri medicals this week, and the Fiorentina man has seemingly snubbed interest from both Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur to make the move to Juventus.
The former Partizan Belgrade man has struck 17 goals in 21 Serie A games during the 2021-22 season, and Arsenal are rumoured to be looking at Alexander Isak and Luka Jovic as potential alternatives.
