Manager makes huge striker admission: Arsenal plotting £40m swoop for star
ARSENAL could be close to a deal for Alvaro Morata after Juventus boss Massimo Allegri confirms the club are in the market for 'possible alternatives'.
Arsenal will reportedly offer Alvaro Morata £155k-a-week to join
Morata is reportedly a top target for Arsene Wenger this summer, with The Sun claiming the north London side will break the bank to sign him for £40million on a £155,000-a-week deal.
It is said the Gunners will do direct business with Real Madrid, who are set to activate their £25million buy-back clause on the striker.
"I've already given Morata some advice, he needs to stay at Juventus," he added.
"What did he say? He nodded and I hope he understands I'm saying this for his own good."
