Arsene Wenger has revealed his interest in Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal amid transfer rumours.
Vidal, who plays for Serie A side Juventus, has been linked with a £44 million move to the gunners in recent days and The Gunners boss has refused to rule out the deal, and admitted he is a big fan of the player.
‘Vidal is one of the best midfielders in the world’ Wenger said.
‘He has everything, incredible stamina, perfect timing. He is a marathon athlete who plays football’.
The Chilean international, who is preparing to face Brazil in the last-16 of the World Cup, is also on Manchester United’s radar, but they are only prepared to offer as high as £33m for the 27-year-old.
