5 strikers Arsenal should target in January transfer window

2. Dusan Vlahovic

The one that got away. Dusan Vlahovic was a priority striker target for Arsenal three years ago this month but instead, he chose a move to Juventus. He's continued to be linked with the Gunners despite joining the Serie A side, and we could see him finally make the move to north London.

The Serbian has struggled for form since joining Juve but has put up decent numbers as their top scorer this season, netting 12 goals in 23 appearances in all competitions. Vlahovic has slightly underperformed his xG of 12.4, however.

Despite the underperformance, there's no denying that Vlahovic has been clinical with his chances and looks like a good market opportunity. One report claims that Juventus have offered the Serbian international to Manchester United in a potential swap deal as they want to sell him on while he is under contract. A market value of €60m, a year-and-a-half remaining on his contract and being potentially unwanted could put Arsenal in the driving seat to get a decent deal.

While that is down to believing some rumours, Vlahovic would be a great option for Arsenal this month.
