Arsenal to fight it out with Juventus for French midfielder

Arsenal to fight it out with Juventus for French midfielder

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is looking to radically shake up his Gunners team this summer and The Mirror reports that a player that has come on to the Frenchman’s radar is highly-rated Lyon midfielder Corentin Tolisso. The 22-year-old has been subject to huge transfer speculation since January with Serie A giants Juventus also in the running.
 
With Wenger also looking at 21-year-old Spanish international Pablo Fornals of Malaga, Tolisso is also seen as another young dynamic addition to the squad. The French side however, are looking for around £30M for one of their star performers but with the North London side already hunting down striker Alexandre Lacazette, Wenger will hope that he can pull off a huge double swoop by trying to reduce their asking price.
 
It looks set to be a summer of change at The Emirates with the possible departures of Mesut Ozil, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Alexis Sanchez; it could also be the most important close season in the Wenger’s 20 plus years at the helm.
