Arsenal have been handed a boost should they step up their attempts to sign Gianluca Scamacca from Sassuolo. In preparation for the Italian’s potential departure, the Serie A side have secured his possible replacement.
Arsenal are looking to replace Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who have both since left the Gunners. It has left a major void in the attacking line, and it appears the Gunners see Gianluca Scamacca as an alternative to priority target Gabriel Jesus.
Fabrizio Romano reports that Penarol striker Agustin Alvarez has agreed and signed a deal with Sassuolo. The Uruguayan is just two years younger than Scamacca although has scored just one goal and chipped in with one further assist in 14 Primera Division appearances.
