Arsenal are 'in the strongest position' to sign Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic in terms of fee and salary as the Gunners battle Tottenham, Man United and Juventus for the Serb's signature

Arsenal are leading the race for Fiorentina star Dusan Vlahovic, according to reports.

Mikel Arteta is desperate for a new striker to lead the line as Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's future at the Emirates looks uncertain, while Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah's contracts are set to expire in summer.

The Gunners are pursuing Vlahovic with Tottenham, Manchester United and Juventus linked with the Serbian striker, who has scored 18 goals in 22 games this season.
