Juventus defender Daniele Rugani could be the next player to sign with Arsenal in January, according to The Independent. Arsenal continues to come under fire for their lack of signings during the summer transfer window. Now there are multiple players rumored for a move to the Emirates.
The young Italian spent the past two seasons playing for Empoli until Juventus bought out the second half of his contract this past transfer season, according to Bleacher Report. Having a lot of money makes buying out players' contracts fairly easy, and Juventus must be pleased with the results of buying Rugani.
Rugani is one of the up-and-coming Italian defenders in Serie A and an important part of Juventus' defense. The Italian giants are flooded with young talent like Rugani. Alvaro Morata and Paul Pogba lead the attack for Juve.
Arsenal must sign a top player in January, otherwise there will be calls for manager Arsene Wenger's firing. Bringing in a player like Rugani adds depth and provides a great option for long-term success.
