The Sun revealed yesterday that they believe Arsene Wenger called Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic about a possible £28 million move to the Emirates.

The Bosnian international was said to have responded enthusiastically to the offer although no verbal agreement was made about moving to the Gunners.

In a new development today, Italian website calciomercatoweb.it have said that have received information that Juventus Sporting Director Giuseppe Marotta is looking at signing Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey.

With both clubs eyeing up moves for midfielders in the other’s team, could there be a possibility of a swap deal? One thing that counts against the Pjanic move is the fact that the 26-year-old only joined from Roma at the start of the season.

It is not as though he has struggled for form either. In 20 appearances in all competitions, the Bosnian has scored six times and provided eight assists from a central midfield role. Whether the Gunners would sanction a sale of Ramsey to Juve independent of the Pjanic deal is an entirely different question though.
