The Gunners are currently evaluating the future of Jakub Kiwior and there is a possibility that he could be sold amid interest from Juventus and AC Milan.

With this in mind, they are open to landing another left-footed centre-back, who has the ability to operate from the left-back position too.

Calafiori has been identified as the perfect candidate. The 22-year-old is one of the best passers in Serie A. He has also impressed with his aerial presence.

The youngster recently made the headlines at the European Championship. He delivered a stunning assist for Italy's late equaliser against Croatia.

Bologna are not looking to part ways with Calafiori at the moment, but reports claim that they could be persuaded to accept €40 million.

Arsenal could recoup most of the transfer fee with the departure of Kiwior, who has also been linked with multiple Premier League teams.
