Arsenal could move for the ‘Atomic Ant’

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is on alert for Juventus ace Sebastian Giovinco and could design a move for him, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

Giovinco has struggled to break into the starting XI ever since Diego arrived from Werder Bremen and new coach Luigi Del Neri’s rigid 4-4-2 system has also left little room for flexibility.

The tactician confirmed he had faith in Diego, sending messages that Giovinco may find it tough next term.

‘La Formica Atomica’ has made clear he wants regular action through his agent, Andrea D’Amico. Bari and Parma have also been linked; the former expressed their desire to sign Giovinco earlier in the transfer window.

But, should Arsenal’s interest take off, Giovinco will be attracted by the melting pot of Premier League and Champions League football, and a decent offer from London could convince Juve into selling.
