Juventus Wants Arsenal to Pay for Vucinic, Says No to a Loan Deal.

Juventus has told Arsenal to either buy Mirko Vucinic or forget about any option of a loan deal.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said at his pre-game pres conference ahead of their FA Cup third-round tie with Tottenham Hotspur the club will only look out for a striker in the current transfer market, should Nicklas Bendtner’s injury situation fail to improve.
The Gunners are presently without a recognised “centre-forward” as Olivier Giroud nurses a slight sickness despite showing signs of improvement on his ankle injury. Wenger will be counting on the services of the returning Lukas Podolski and Theo Walcott for Saturday’s game against Spurs.

Representatives from the Premier League leaders met with Juve’s general manager Beppe Marrota over the New Year as the Turin-based outfit considers offloading the striker, according to a report on Mirror Sport.
The club, who has dropped to the Europa League for the rest of the season, says they won’t loan Vucinic.
They’ve slapped an £8m price tag on the striker, who is also being touted by Arsenal’s North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
