Arsenal 'identify Calvert-Lewin as top Vlahovic alternative'

Arsenal are reportedly likely to make an approach for Everton forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin during the summer transfer window.

The Gunners have allegedly been focused on trying to get a deal for Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic over the line since the beginning of January.

However, the Serbia international is seemingly in line to move to Juventus, whether that be this month or at the end of the season.

According to the Daily Star, Arsenal are now expected to turn their attention to Calvert-Lewin, even if they have to wait until later in 2022.

The Englishman has endured a frustrating campaign due to injury, restricting him to three goals from six Premier League starts, and the 24-year-old's presence is required as the Toffees attempt to stay out of a relegation battle.

Even in the summer, the North London outfit may struggle to tempt Everton into a sale, with Calvert-Lewin's contract not due to expire until 2025.
