If the North Londoners do resolve to go after the 24-year-old this week, then they’re going to have to make a hefty funding, because the report has revealed that the Previous Woman worth the ahead at €65m, which converts to about £55m.

It could be a pricey and doubtlessly difficult switch to recover from the road, however given Vlahović’s potential and Arsenal’s want for a brand new striker, it’s one nicely price pursuing, particularly as he would have scored a hattrick in opposition to Spurs final evening.

In the end, it would require a big funding from the board, however Arsenal desperately want a brand new profile up high, and Vlahović appears like he’d be the right choice and somebody who would have put Spurs to the sword final evening.
