Arsenal and Manchester United are still monitoring Bologna’s Joshua Zirkzee amid keen interest from AC Milan.
Both clubs are said to be closely monitoring developments with the striker, who is one of several attacking options Arsenal and United are considering this summer.
Sky in Italy report that Milan are still pushing to sign the 23-year-old after he flew to London late last week for negotiations. Nothing has been agreed but they remain in contact with his representatives.
Zirkzee has a £34m (€40m) release clause in his contract, which still has two years remaining.
Arsenal want to sign a young striker they can develop, having turned their attention away from the likes of Newcastle. Alexandre Isak and that of Brentford Ivan Toney.
Juventus also like Zirkzee but are currently working on other targets, and they would have to sell a striker to bring in one.
When does the summer transfer window open and close?
