As 2025 approaches, Arsenal are being linked with more strikers, with a likely acquisition next year. While Mikel Arteta would prefer to secure a top goal-scorer in January, most quality options are expected to become available only after the season ends.
Arsenal have been linked with Juventus forward Dusan Vlahovic. The Serbian international’s contract with the Bianconeri runs until June 2026, but he could be sold next year if he doesn’t renew, as Juventus seeks to lower his wage.
Vlahovic is valued at £55 million on Transfermarkt, but Arsenal are looking to reduce the price by offering Gabriel Jesus in a swap deal, according to Fichajes (h/t 90min). Juventus are reportedly interested in the former Manchester City striker, who has struggled at Arsenal due to persistent injury problems.
A perfect deal for Arsenal
Mikel Arteta has often used Kai Havertz as his striker, even when Gabriel Jesus has been fit and available. It’s clear that the Brazilian forward may not be part of Arsenal’s long-term plans, and a move to a less physically demanding league like Serie A could benefit his career.
Arsenal could offload Gabriel Jesus without additional effort, while also reducing the cost of Dusan Vlahovic’s signing through a swap deal. This option appears appealing for all parties, but it remains to be seen if Jesus is willing to move to Turin and what his valuation would be for the deal to proceed.

Ruben Amorim wants Rayan Ait-Nouri at Man Utd

Ruben Amorim is reportedly keen on signing Wolverhampton’s Rayan Ait-Nouri for Manchester United, according to Caught Offside.
Erik ten Hag led Manchester United to two cup wins in consecutive seasons after becoming manager in 2022. However, following a disappointing start to this season, he was dismissed, and Ruben Amorim has since been appointed as the new head coach.
Despite Amorim’s appointment, Manchester United’s on-field performances have shown limited improvement, and they are currently sitting in the bottom half of the table.
Manchester United have a mediocre squad and need a complete rebuild to turn things around. Strengthening the left-wing-back position should be a top priority.
Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia are Amorim’s options at left-wing-back, but Shaw has struggled with fitness issues, while Malacia has yet to find his best form after recovering from a serious knee injury that kept him out for most of last season.
Ait-Nouri to Man Utd
Amorim has been using Diogo Dalot on the left side of defense, but the right-back has struggled to perform at his best in this role due to his natural position.
Caught Offside reports that Manchester United are willing to offload Malacia, with Juventus showing interest in signing him. As a result, Amorim has identified Rayan Ait-Nouri as his ‘first-choice’ replacement for the former Feyenoord star.
He’s valued at £30m by Transfermarkt, and while buying him in January won’t be cheap, Wolves’ relegation struggle could force them to sell him at a reduced price next summer if they fail to stay up.
The Algerian has contributed eight goals in 20 Premier League appearances this season. He’s quick, technically skilled, capable of threading passes through the lines, dribbling past defenders in tight spaces, and delivering accurate crosses from wide areas.
The defender is a proven Premier League star, making him a great potential signing for Man Utd if they can secure his services.

Arsenal’s interest grows as Vlahovic’s agent meets him
![](https://greynews.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/fbl-ita-seriea-torino-juventus-scaled-e1671036733854-1.jpg)
According to Tuttosport, Arsenal are keen on signing Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic in the winter transfer window.
Arsenal have struggled with scoring in recent weeks, despite a 2-1 win over Tottenham on Wednesday, where they missed several clear chances.
With the need for a reliable striker to lead the attack, Tuttosport reports that the Gunners could approach Juventus for Dusan Vlahovic in the coming days.
The sighting of Dusan Vlahovic and his agent in Turin this week could hint at potential transfer activity, fueling speculation about a move to Arsenal.
Tuttosport adds that Arsenal have a strong interest in Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic. Juventus are open to his departure before the transfer deadline, should they receive a significant offer.
Possible deal
Gabriel Jesus has recently regained form, scoring six goals in all competitions, but he will be unavailable for the rest of the season due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury sustained against Manchester United last weekend.
Kai Havertz has faced added pressure following Gabriel Jesus’ injury, as his early-season form has dipped, mirroring the team’s struggles. Arsenal have also felt the absence of Bukayo Saka, who is currently sidelined with an injury.
With the need for another goal-scoring threat, Arsenal could target Dusan Vlahovic. The 24-year-old has been a regular for Juventus, but his role could change with Randal Kolo Muani’s potential arrival on a short-term loan.
Vlahovic, now in the final 18 months of his contract, may be open to a new challenge. Arsenal, who have tracked him since his Fiorentina days, could make an approach before the transfer window closes.
Juventus are asking for £55 million to sell Vlahovic, but Arsenal are cautious of breaching Profit and Sustainability Rules. They may propose a temporary deal with an option to buy this summer.

Lateef Adedimeji has shared why he denied a rumored romance with Bimpe Oyebade-Adedimeji before their marriage. In an interview, he revealed that his wife thought he was joking when he proposed over the phone.

Nollywood actor Lateef Adedimeji has shared his thoughts on denying a rumored romance with Bimpe Oyebade-Adedimeji before their marriage and also shared a funny story about how he proposed to her.
In an interview with Chude Jideonwo on the With Chude Podcast, Lateef explained that his wife thought he was joking when he proposed to her over the phone.
He mentioned that Mo Bimpe was initially hesitant due to his Islamic faith and concerns about her father’s approval. He recalled, “I called her and told her I wanted to ask her something, then I told her I wanted to marry her.
She was just joking, like, ‘What is doing this one? Get out! I can’t marry a Muslim; are you okay? My daddy won’t even hear that.
The actor arranged to talk to her father about marrying her, and after some discussion, he agreed. He continued, sharing how the conversation with her father went smoothly, and that he was ultimately able to win their approval for the marriage.
“Then I told her that we’d go see her dad, and I’d speak to him and calm him down. So we went to her village during one of their masquerade festivals, and towards the end, I asked to see her dad. I promised him that I’d take care of his daughter, and he said he’d pray and get back to me, and that was it.
“The proposal wasn’t planned because we just dated for like two, three months and then we got married.”
Lateef and Bimpe celebrated the traditional part of their celebrity wedding in Ijero-Ekiti, Ekiti State, on Saturday, December 18. This was followed by a Nikhai ceremony on Wednesday, December 22, 2021, in Ikeja, Lagos State.
Several celebrities attended the event, including Toyin Abraham, Kolawole Ajeyemi, Nkechi Blessing, Mercy Aigbe, Adunni Ade, Wumi Toriola, Femi Adebayo, Yetunde Bakare, Odunlade Adekola, and Tunde Kelani.
