Arsenal: One transfer target from each Serie A club

No, we don’t need a winger, thanks for asking. But you make exceptions for certain people and Dejan Kulusevski is one such certain person. I made the same exception for Milot Rashica when I made the same list for the Bundesliga.

Like Rashica, Kulusevski is looking like one of the next great wingers on an international level. If you don’t snap him up in his teenage years, which are quickly running out, then you may have to face him in crucial competitions when he’s thriving at a near rival.
Dejan Kulusevski has been tremendous at producing goals at Parma. It’s his first full year at the club and he’s already got five goals and seven assists as well as proving to be an instigator as far as making things happen in dangerous situations. He’s a risk to lose possession, but all young wingers are.
He creates chances, he takes shots, he’s just a really great winger all around and that’s what makes him so exciting, despite his value not fully spreading its wings and flying yet. You can never have too many young talents, even if there’s no much more room in the starting XI. Guys like Dejan Kulusevski create room for themselves.
