Juventus are set to allow experienced Swiss international Stephan Lichtsteiner to join Arsenal as the Turin based side look to fund a move for Ajax playmaker Christian Eriksen.
Arsene Wenger is reportedly keen on beefing up his right sided defensive options, with Bacary Sagna having only a year to run on his current deal and seemingly seen as a potential central defensive option and youngster Carl Jenkinson perhaps still being too raw for a regular first team spot.
This source claims Arsenal were linked with a £12m bid for the 29 year old Juventus man earlier this summer and are now being encouraged by the Serie A title holders to re-ignite their interest in the former Lazio man.
