Arsenal want Juan Cuadrado in January deal from Juventus after giving up on Monaco superstar Thomas Lemar
Gunners also expecting Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez to leave as Arsene Wenger starts plotting stunning January deals
ARSENAL will reportedly launch a January bid for Juventus star and former Chelsea flop Juan Cuadrado.
Italian news outlet TMW claims the Gunners are targeting him after giving up on signing Monaco ace Thomas Lemar.
Cuadrado failed to impress during an ill-fated six-month spell at Stamford Bridge in 2016.
But a stunning resurgence at Italian champions Juventus has seen him fall under Arsene Wenger’s radar.
The Arsenal boss promised a huge summer of spending but only ended up paying £50million for striker Alexandre Lacazette.
Left-back Sead Kolasinac arrived on a free transfer from Schalke, but there were no other new faces as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was shipped off to Liverpool on deadline day.
And after a shaky start to the Premier League campaign, Wenger could now look to seal one or two deals ahead of the next window in January.
New arrivals may also be needed ASAP as doubts linger over the futures of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez.

The duo are both out of contract next summer and have given no indication they will sign new deals.
The feeling around the Emirates is that they both will leave for nothing, seeing Arsenal hit by the double blow of receiving no transfer fees and having to then shell out of their own pocket for replacements.
Jack Wilshere could also be heading off shortly, with troubled Crystal Palace interested in a loan deal.
