Overview
- Italian outlet L’Interista reports Arsenal have “great interest” in the 20-year-old, with multiple English publications repeating the claim.
- Inter Milan retain a buy-back right of about €23m/£20m for summer 2026, and reports indicate they intend to activate it.
- Any attempt to sign him sooner would likely require a premium over the clause, with figures up to roughly £30m cited by reports.
- Mikel Arteta watched Stanković when Arsenal faced Club Brugge in the Champions League this month, where the midfielder drew positive notices.
- Arsenal strengthened midfield with Martin Zubimendi and Christian Nørgaard, framing Stanković as a longer-term option rather than an immediate need.
