Arsenal chase Dusan Vlahovic
Arsenal are reportedly chasing Fiorentina marksman Dusan Vlahovic, who once again showed his class during Fiorentina’s 6-0 demolition of Genoa on Monday evening.
After missing a penalty in the first half, the Serbian marksman made up for it in the second, bringing down a long pass expertly before chipping the Genoa goalkeeper from 18 yards out.
There’s a reason why Dušan Vlahović is one of the most sought-after strikers in Europe! ?

And, after the game, Fiorentina boss Vincenzo Italiano was not exactly sounding expectant of keeping the Serbian this January, saying:
“At the moment we enjoy Dusan here at Fiorentina, he’s with us – I don’t know about the future. He scored a great goal today. I see him very motivated, he’s relaxed”

So will Arsenal strike?
Arsenal fans think they spot transfer clue
And now, some Arsenal fans think that they have spotted a transfer clue about their potential pursuit of Vlahovic, in the form of his half time and post-goal antics for La Viola.
After scoring, the forward held his arms aloft, before running over to embrace his manager.
And, safe to say, some Arsenal fans ran with the theory.

BT Sport commentator just said something interesting. Along the lines of Vlahovic waving to the fans as he came out to the second half, a fellow Fiorentina player hugging and whispering something to him. ‘Could this be his last half of football for Fiorentina?’

Whatever way I look at it, Dusan Vlahovic coming out for the second-half in Fiorentina’s last home game of the month with his hands held high signaling goodbye to the fans is very odd indeed.
