Arsenal pounce on € 15 million Juventus target Riccardo Saponara
The 24-year-old offensive midfielder scored 5 goals in registered 10 assists in the 2015-16 campaign with Empoli and had been close to move to Juventus in the winter transfer window. The Old Lady has kept scouting him throughout the campaign with representatives from the club that have attended all the Tuscan’s games to monitor the product of AC Milan academy’s progresses.
There will be plenty of competition, however, to seal the transfer of one of the most promising Italian players in the summer.
