Arsenal are reportedly plotting a double raid on Juventus for star striker Dusan Vlahovic and playmaker Fabio Miretti

The Gunners have started the season superbly thanks to a summer spending spree, with Mikel Arteta's side entering the international break top of the Premier League.

And Calciomercato claim the Spaniard is ready to splash out £100million to bring in two of the Old Lady's brightest talents.

Vlahovic, 22, only arrived in Turin in January and has 13 strikes in 27 outings for his new employers after bursting onto the scene with Fiorentina.

He would add extra firepower to a Gunners frontline that added Gabriel Jesus, Fabio Vieira and Marquinhos in the last window and also includes the likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli.

The report adds that Arteta is also keen on 19-year-old central midfield prospect Miretti, who has been a key figure in Juve's engine room this season.

He is an Italy Under-21s international and would provide depth in an area where Arsenal are short of bodies.

Convincing Juve to sell their main goal threat and a rising star could prove difficult, however, as they try to restore their status as Serie A's dominant side.

The Daily Mail claim Emirates chiefs have also opened talks with Eintracht Frankfurt over a £17m move for Denmark winger Jesper Lindstrom.
