According to Sky Sport Italia pundit Gianluca Di Marzio, Arsenal and their new manager Unai Emery have set their sights on Pellegrini for next season.

He has a release clause in his contract worth €30m, but the Gunners could try to negotiate a deal instead.

The alternative to Pellegrini is also to be found in Serie A, as Arsenal and Juventus are both looking at Sampdoria’s Belgian talent Praet.
