Sassuolo's CEO Giovanni Carnevali has confirmed that Arsenal have indeed launched an offer to sign Manuel Locatelli after emerging as one of the players of the tournament at Euro 2020.
Locatelli enjoyed a sensational Euros with Italy, who beat England in a dramatic final via penalties at Wembley, and immediately some of Europe's biggest clubs were taking note of the 23-year-old.
The Gunners, alongside Serie A giants Juventus, are one of the clubs keeping a close eye on Locatelli's situation and his agent recently revealed that Mikel Arteta's men had made a £34million bid.
