Melo and Menez back on Gunner's radar


Menez and Melo in action

FELIPE Melo has reappeared as a summer target for Arsenal.

The agent of the Brazilian International has revealed the player's future at Juventus is in doubt after an inconsistant spell.

Senior officials in Turin are looking closely as the players future and shipping him to the English shores could be an option.

Arsenal were believed to be interested in the tough midfielder back in 2009, but Melo moved from Fiorentina to the Stadio Olimpico for £22million.

His agent has spoken to Sport.co.uk and he said: "The situation is that we have been talking to Juventus but there is no official position on hus future."

"Right now he is doing well and we have no official communication saying that he is for sale, but if Juve decide they want to sell him the Premier League would be on of hus favourite options available to him."

Menez speculation

The Gunners struggled in defensive areas at times this season, but another attacker could be on the cards.

The French midfielder, Jeremy Menez, has been the topic of speculation as his future at AS Roma is far from certain.

"No negotiation with Arsenal has taken place. Now he just wants to finish the season." he told calciomercatio.it
