Arsenal have opened the door to selling defender Takehiro Tomiyasu for the right price next year, according to Caught Offside.
The Japan international has entered his fourth season with the Gunners, but he has yet to establish himself as a guaranteed starter.
The 25-year-old has impressed with his ability to play anywhere in the defence, but his fitness has been a worrying concern.
Tomiyasu is currently nursing a knee injury sustained in pre-season, but he is anticipated to make his comeback in the coming weeks.
It is now reported that Arsenal are open to suitable offers for the former Bologna man, who was purchased for around £17.5 million.
The versatile star is on the radar of Inter Milan, Napoli and Juventus. The trio have apparently made contact with Tomiyasu’s entourage.
Arsenal may look for at least £21m for his exit. The club could accept a loan with an obligation to buy during the next transfer window.
