Arsenal Name Their Asking Price For Serie A Target

Arsenal have asked Juventus to pay £20million for the services of Wojciech Szczesny, according to reports.

The Gunners keeper have been on loan for two seasons with Serie A giants, Roma after falling out of favour under Arsene Wenger, coupled with his antics off the pitch.

However, his time in Italy has been a wonderful spell, showing his worth for Roma to become one of the key figures in the Serie A.

There are reports that Juventus have indicated their interest in signing Szczesny this summer, with suggestions that the Serie A giants view him as an ideal replacement for club legend, Gianluigi Buffon.

Reports in the Sun have it that Juve tabled a £4million bid for the Polish keeper which was rejected by Arsenal who are now holding out for a deal around £20million.

Although, prior reports claim that the Gunners were willing to allow the 27-year-old leave for £13million with just one year left on his deal at the Emirates but Arsenal were said to have changed their mind when Jordan Pickford joined Everton for £30million.

Wojiecech Szczesny is expected to return to Arsenal for pre-season but there are suggestions that he is keen on leaving the Gunners permanently this summer in search of better first team opportunities.
