Overview
- Italian outlet L’Interista reports Arsenal have “great interest” in Aleksandar Stanković, with no formal offer disclosed.
- Mikel Arteta observed the 20-year-old when Arsenal faced Club Brugge in the Champions League earlier this month.
- Inter Milan hold a buyback option to re-sign Stanković for about €23m in summer 2026, increasing to €25m in 2027.
- The buyback could give Inter priority over third-party bids and complicate any Arsenal approach in January or the summer.
- Transfermarkt values him near £13m, yet reports suggest Arsenal might need a fee toward £30m to overcome Inter’s position.
