Arsenal are set to boost their defensive options next month when they hope to bring in Juventus central defender Daniele Rugani, according to the Mirror.
The Juventus man has fallen out of favour with the Old Lady and is keen to move away from the club if the right offer comes his way.
Its believed that the fee if its able to be agreed between the two clubs will be £35.4 million as Arsenal look to sort their defensive options.
Manchester United are also thought to be interested in the player as Juve refuse to give the player a regular source of match action.
Juventus manager Max Allegri has benched the player since November and if Mehdi Benatia maintains his current form the first team chances for Rugani appear to be very limited.
Arsenal have got a number of central defender options but boss Arsene Wenger appears reluctant to give youngsters Rob Holding and Callum Chambers any opportunities and the pair may have to move on to gain first-team action.
