Arsenal Are Still In The Race For Arturo Vidal

Arsenal are planning to up their bid for Bayer Leverkusen's defensive midfielder Arturo Vidal, who sources claim is close to joining Seria A giants Juventus.

Italian daily Tuttosport reported this morning that the Gunners are prepared to move for the 24-year-old Chilean with a view to stopping his proposed move to Italy. The North London outfit will have to offer more than €10m to deter interest from other suitors in the process securing the player's services for the next three years.
