Premier
League side Arsenal are planning to sign Atletico Madrid winger Alessio Cerci, according
to Gianlucadimarzio.
Arsenal
who recently ended their Champions League group stages on the second spot are still
planning to sign another attacker.
After
his impressive performances for Serie A side Torino last season he caught the
eye of the Frenchman boss but his move in the summer failed to finalize
with the North London side and he joined La Liga side Atletico Madrid. The
Italian netted 13 goals and assisted 12 times in Serie A last season.
The
27-year-old will not be moving in the January as he signed a long term deal in
the summer. But could plan to move to the Premier League after this season. However,
he is not getting enough time but still securing his services in January for Wenger
is difficult. Cerci has played only five games so far for the La Liga side.
While also at Emirates, he might not get a regular spot as there are several talents
who wait for their opportunity. Arsenal already have Alexis Sanchez, Santi
Cazorla, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Mesut Ozil and Theo Walcott.
