AS Roma has reportedly offered Justin Kluivert to Arsenal in a bid to sign midfielder, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, on a permanent basis this summer’s transfer window.
This was made known by respected transfer expert and sports journalist, Nicolo Schira.
Schira disclosed this in a tweet via his official Twitter account on Saturday night.
According to him, talks are ongoing with the agents of Kluivert and Mkhitaryan to finalise the deal.
Schira said:
“Roma want to buy Henrikh Mkhitaryan on a permanent deal.
“Giallorossi has offered Arsenal a swap with Justin Kluivert.
“Talks ongoing with the agent of two players: Mino Raiola. Transfers AFC.”
Mkhitaryan has a year left on his contract with Arsenal, and the North London club will be keen to sell the Armenian international at a high fee.
Arsenal value the 31-year-old at around £10million, but Roma’s valuation is even lower than that.
