Giovinco keen on Arsenal move

The 23-year-old Italian - dubbed the natural heir to Alessandro Del Piero - is already closing in on 50 appearances for the Turin giants since graduating from the club's youth ranks, and has been capped 20 times by Italy's under-21s.

"If the interest of Arsenal is concrete, Giovinco would be interested because Arsenal are one of the top clubs in Europe," he said.

"If I hear of something directly from Arsene Wenger or a representative from Arsenal we would put all our attention on to the situation."

"We have spoken to four teams in Italy regarding Giovinco, we are waiting to see who is formally interested, because he will definitely be leaving Juventus this summer,” said Pasqualin.

"There are also sides in Spain who are interested, so we are looking to find a solution for Giovinco in the next 10 days."
