Juventus Eye January Swoop For Arsenal Defender
Serie A giants Juventus are considering a January move for Ivory Coast International Emmanuel Eboue from Premier League side Arsenal, according to reports.
Juve have not enjoyed the best start to their Serie A campaign, with the defensive qualities at La Vecchia Signora being called into question, despite coach Claudio Ranieri bringing Christian Poulsen and Olof Mellberg to the Bianconeri during the summer.
Juventus had tried to sign Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic during the summer, but Blues manager Luiz Felipe Scolari refused to let the central-defender leave for Turin insisting that the Serbian was very much in his plans for this Premiership season.
Now it is understood that 25-year-old Eboue is on Ranieri’s radar, with a January move for the right-sided player being mooted in January.
Eboue has fallen down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium this season, with Gunners boss preferring to use England International Theo Walcott and Bacary Sagna on the right side and has made fleeting appearances on the right side of midfield. Which is reportedly not working out for the former Beveren player.
The Ivorian is said to be keen on Juve, if Ranieri can guarantee him first-team football in his preferred position at right-back.

Arsenal To Make Offer For Afellay
According to The Sun, Arsenal gaffer Arsene Wenger is seriously interested in signing PSV playmaker Ibrahim Afellay. The Gunners are ready to table an €8million offer for the highly-rated midfielder.
However, it remains to be seen if the Eindhoven side will even consider such an offer. Afellay was repeatedly linked to Italian giants Roma last summer and PSV boss Jan Reker set an asking price of €15million for the Holland international.
Wenger has been searching for another midfielder for a while, following the departures of Mathieu Flamini and Aliaksandr Hleb, but failed to satisfy the Arsenal supporters with a new midfield signing in the summer.
The French manager especially admires Afellay's versatility and a January move could be possible if PSV are willing to enter into negotiations.
Afellay is a product of the PSV youth academy and made his debut in 2003. The 22-year-old has already made 87 league appearances for the Eredivisie side, netting 16 times. He has also won several international caps with Oranje. -
they dont reali need a creative midfielder now... they need a good CM to control the center fo the field...
