ARSENAL are said to have accepted the transfer terms of Weston Mckennei with Juventus. The USA international has made 15 appearances in Serie A this season, scoring once.


Juventus are willing to cash in on the player for £18million with Arsenal interested, according to Calciomercato. The Gunners would have to fight off interest from Premier League rivals Bournemouth and Aston Villa. A report suggests that the former Schalke star would be open to a move to a top club. Mikel Arteta's side have been linked with a host of central midfielders. The Spaniard is believed to be keen on adding some more depth to his midfield. The club currently have Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey as their fixed first choices. West Ham star Declan Rice is one player that has been heavily rumoured with a summer move to the club, but he would be a more costly investment.

However, it is believed that the England international is keen on a move to the Emirates Stadium after 'liking' a post on social media celebrating the club's win over Manchester United. The Turin-based side is currently in turmoil after being deducted 15 points after being accused of inflating transfer fees in dealings with other Italian clubs over three seasons to create millions of pounds in “capital gains” for tax purposes. It was stated that Juventus had manipulated the system to free up their spending powers in the market.
